Hi and Good Morning!
I have visited your page; I have added your e-mail address to the list of
Mongomery County names on my "family names" page; I care not that you have
names from other counties; the reason I do not include your web site is that
the list of Montgomery County names says it all and anyone who is at all
interested in that surname will write you; I see you have put in a querry at
the Mont. Co. Querries - that should generate you some mail.
Might I add that the "links" I place on my site have some general interest
information at that site - lists from a Church, links to really valuable
other sites, etc. The Montgomery County page is for those who are
interested in Montgomery County, want to know more about the county, its
resources, and so on and are searching/researching more information.
Sincerely,
Frances Morrison

Dear Frances,
About two weeks ago, when you listed seven of my surnames on the
"Montgomery
County Families" web page, you listed only my e-mail address (but
NOT the
URL
of my home page as I had requested). As a result, I have not received
any
requests for information about my Montgomery County ancestors.
I note, however, that on the same Montgomery County Families page, you
listed
three families (Kehl, Sassaman, Reimer) that had been submitted by
Christine
Latch, for which you listed not only her e-mail address, but you ALSO
provided
a link to her home page, "Christine Latch page" (despite the
fact that her
home page also includes surnames from surrounding counties, as mine does).
Although the 80 surnames on my "Surnames to Brag About" homepage are not
ALL
from Montgomery County, the Coordinators of the other counties have
provided
links on their sub-pages to my homepage.
There are now links to my homepage at:
BERKS County GenWeb at:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~paberks/berks.htm
BUCKS County GenWeb at:

NORTHAMPTON Cty Geocities at: http:www.geocities.com/heartland/6508.
In the past two weeks, I have received 5 to 8 e-mails daily from
researchers
in those counties, requesting information about my surnames, Frances.
I
have
responded to every request in detail, stating from where the people
emigrated,
date of arrival, places they settled, names of spouses, names and
birthdates
of their children, burial place, etc., and most responded
enthusiastically
that they had found an ancestor - at last, as a result of my Surnames page.
I have been advised by Tammy Lamb, Northampton County GenWeb Coordinator,
that she will provide a link to my page on one of her county pages this
week.
The PA GenWeb Archivist has suggested I should contact you again and urge
you
to PLEASE provide a link to my page on your page entitled
"Personal Pages
of
Interest," AND to a provide a link to my page at the entry of my
surnames
which is currently on your "Montgomery County Families" page. Without such
links to my page, there is no way I can help people in Montgomery County
who
are searching for my surnames - much as I am eager to be of help!
I would appreciate it VERY much if you would PLEASE provide a link to my
page
on Montgomery County's "Personal Pages of Interest" and
on the "Montgomery
County Families" page with the surnames that are listed there beside the
link
to my e-mail address.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Gratefully,
Irene Diehl Konrad
