OK, I'll send them, Rebecca and William, a message........Night all

'nite now. Will check my phone msgs in a few. Sorry 'bout that. Sleep well...... will lurk here a while.

yes, believe Rebecca & William from New Zealand are searching Joslin/Josslyn? Don't know if they'd want all that, but know you had their email, give 'em a try

Looks like all are busy researching or left,or surfing, so gonna call it a night. Night DONNA,BEA,and JEN

leaving message for you that I'm so happy you posted to the room to let those of us who haven't kept in touch lately know how things are (includes me!) Please know that good thoughts & prayers are with you & especially your dear Earl and daughter. Love ya 'kiddo' {{{HUGS}}}

I received 15 pages of Joslin History from someone so if you know any one searching that name(I was only cking where Peter JOSLIN married Hanna(h) WHITCOMB)and got all the rest..

And Bea too...Slappppp on right wrists for both of you....LOL

cool Bea, hope it helps... Jen, it just dawned on me I should prob. also check the CT Death Index for our Angie MONTANA BOWEN! duuuh, slap me LOL... Mom, gotta keep me in line

Yes, I call 3-4 times and left 2 messages.

I ck this room quite a few times daily,but not to many on at the same time. They just post and leave I guess....... AND........they don't read the.. WHOLE... message CORRECTLY...aaahem -)

I think it is exactly what I was looking for. Didn't know that the US Census was different from the State Census. Now, maybe I can find other ancestors who until now have been unfound. Thanks so much.

i've been busy w/ kids, etc. Just read your email short while ago.. did you call on phone? hasn't rung at all hmmm. oh well, here now! ... can't believe I actually caught some chatters for once!

Donna, where have you been? I've been calling you.(nothing important) and I sent you an e-mail.

sorry, my screen isn't updating very fast/often when i use Read New Msgs... plus SOME of us don't have that highspeed connection... aaahem -)

Thanks, for that info. I'll let Donna do that (it's to confusing for me), LOL, I'm to busy keeping Donna and Bea STRAIGHT here.

hey we all need to pamper ourselves now & then huh? it's a real treat when we can. As far as the info, I just did a search on Ancestry.com & checked out the census record matches that came up for the approx. years. Sure hope it's the one you're looking for!

Hey!.... You guys get with it now...LOL. ...Start reading each others posts. I can't be playing messenger to you both...LOL.

thanks for reminder about SSDI for our Angie, but I'll need to look for her as BOWEN (married name). Can't remember, does SSDI apply to people in the early 1940's?

hey there lady! :-)

hehe I'm back for a bit. heard of phone tag, now we've got room-tag? LOL Mom, wonder if we'll ever find Angie's info.... I'd also like to find out how I can go about getting vital records in CT now.... Bea, whatcha think about that last Census record for the J. HEEDLEY? anything there for ya?

Have you checked out the SS Death Index on Angie MONTANA? Also, there are some excellent lists for Htfd.,CT through Rootsweb. You can join either the Digest Mode or List Mode (Digest just condenses everything down). Then once you get a post, you can post a query on there regarding Angie. I have had great success using either town lists or state lists..you could just join a CT list for that matter. Good Luck, CDMOM!!

I think that you may have found the information that I was looking for. Where on earth did you come up with that bit of information? Boy! You must be a lot smarter than I am when it comes to knowing where to look for these people and suck like information.

......I am looking for information on an Angie MONTANA,.(no DOB,but died in her late 20's, early 30's)in Hartford, CT.... living in the Hartford, Ct (area,not sure what City/Town), in 1940's...... Married (Wayland G. BOWEN,b:(1-15-1922)in Hyde Park, VT..d:(7-13-1997)in Richmond,VT.).....They were married somewhere in Ca.,as Wayland was stationed there(Army)1940-42.... Angie(Angela?) Died in her 20's (in Htfd.,Ct.),from heart trouble a few months after the birth of an only child(son),b:Htfd.Ct.,abt.9/1943.....This was Angie and Wayland's 1st marriage...He later married again and moved to VT and had more children.....Any information,suggestions about Angie MONTANA , would be welcome......thank you, ...eastevens@attbi.com ...I don't think she ever worked,(so, maybe no SS#)

Boy, do I ever feel better after a nice shower and shampoo!!! LOL. Also took a rare hour to myself and blow dried my hair and just pampered myself for a change.

yucky picky stuff isn't it? Don't envy you tonight LOL. Well all I can dig up for now that looked like a possible. Gotta run for a while. TTYL

could this be your James Wesley HEEDLEY by any chance? (James M.'s father?) 1860 US Census for Alabama, Coosa County, Township: Southern Division, Post Office: Rockford, Roll: M653_7 Page: 12, Ancestry Image: 13 .... it only shows in this one household: J. HEEDLEY 56 M W Farmer Value of Real Estate and Value of Pers. Estate = 500 each, birthplace: SC - next line looks like E. HEEDLEY 52 F W Housewife birthplace: (can't make out if GA or PA or Can), has mark in col. can't read or write - next line looks like another E. HEEDLEY 14 M W birthplace: SC

Thanks ever so much for your efforts, especially for your desire to help me. Earlier I was working with fiberglass insulation and I feel like I have a face full of it, so I am going to go take a shower and wash it away, I hop. Be back later. Bea

yup, read some of your message bd. posts later too. So far all I can find is James Marion HEEDLEY's father was JAMES WESLEY HEEDLEY (see below). I've come up short from that point back also so far, but will look a while longer & pass on anything if I find :-)

Thanks, however, I have this information. What I need is information or sources to hopefully find the parents of James Marion HEEDLEY. I meet the brick wall when trying to find the parents of James Marion HEEDLEY who was my great grandfather. Thanks for your efforts though. If you have relatives in the southeastern US during the 1830s and 1840s, just keep an eye out for any HEEDLEYs also may have been spelled HEADLEY. bdorsett801@msn.com

8 vol, $ 414.95 Cherokee by blood.

Do you by chance know the author of that book 'Cherokee by Blood' ? If so, please let me know, because our local library does not have it in their system. bdorsett801@msn.com

Good afternoon all. I have really busy all day and just now had the time to stop by. I don't really have the time to tarry here, but will be checking back from time to time. I really would appreciate any help I could get on the Joseph WOODELL/WOODALL family as they were the ones who apparently took my great grandfather, James Marion HEEDLEY and his sister Mary HEEDLEY in when they were children. I would just like to know who their natural parents were and what happened to them. I do not have much information to go on other than they would have been born about 1840. Unfortunately, I do not know if they were from AL or not only that their children James and Mary HEEDLEY were born there. If anyone can find any other information on them, I would greatly appreciate receiving it. In addition, I do know that the WOODELL/WOODALLs show up in the 1880 AL census, but haven't found them on previous AL censuses, so I can only surmise that they may not have been from that area. Perhaps somewhere east of AL, maybe???? Thanks, Bea Dorsett bdorsett801@msn.com

thanks -- I got your email. Time for me to close down and get busy here. Later all --

Well,I should have known I'd find a ton of stuff through www.google.com Here's a url from 'Cyndi's List' that may help others who aren't familiar with some of the genealogy terms >> http://www.cyndislist.com/diction.htm

Does anyone know if there is a website that will help the genealogy novice with the abbreviations sometimes used? In my file I received there is an abbreviation: 'IGI' and I am not familiar with it. thanks

I'm not sure how to go about sorting out what other surnames I now have,thanks to the 18 1/2 pages on my Stange line -- but here are a few connections to my Stange line:Reige - Grueneberg - Beyer - Lewis - Ladwiz(? Ladwig - Ludwig) - Deering(Dohring)

G'morning to you

Good morning.

Thanks to everyone who has been posting helpful URL's to go to for help in our researching.

Go to GoogIe and type in president campaign buttons.

Concerning e-mail addresses. There is a window for entering your address directly under the 'From'window. If it is completed, you can click on the poster's underlined name and write them directly. However, it is possible to post without entering your address which I just did on my last post... Bottomline: if we want a respone we should always enter our addy.

Thanks, Calgal, and it is suspected that we're talking about the same Haarlem and that Corrie Ten Boom is connected to this line, also possible the BOONE family of US is too.

Searching today for the parents of Penia Catherine THOMAS born 1838 and married to Henry Alvis CHEEK in Orange County NC in 1861. Henry was first married to Penia's sister Frances. Who are the sister's parents?

To print a blank Family Group Record sheet, go to ~ http://www.genealogy-mall.com/fgr.htm

I just read your post on Van Bom for Haarlem, Netherlands? There is a Haarlem, Holland. I visited there in 1980. Corrie Ten Boom was from there. She wrote several books. Beautiful little Dutch town she was raised in.

Good Night everyone. Sleep well...No one else will arrange any quiet time for me....I have to see to it myself.

Yes, I realize this isn't genealogy, but I also have some campaign buttons (they have pins on the back of them). They are not as old as yours, but I have kept some from when I was small i.e., Nixon & Ike & a few others.

I had forgotten about that. Strange isn't it? (about the same numbers)

Is it a button, or a pin? Did you find a button/pin website? And if so, could you share the URL, please? Thanks.

I will look through what I have here. I am going to send this information to my Dad and see if he has them in his data base. My e-mail is petepb@localaccess.com. I don't know why it came back to you. Try again.
