Hello everyone. I had previously thought some of the problems on these
lists were gone, but with people subscribing all the time, I guess they
will never go away. This is a reminder of some of the things that I have
decided I will try to send out every few months...for now on the subject
will be "from the listowner...how to post".
Basically, in the past 2 weeks, I have had to redirect about 50% of the
posts that are going to all my lists because people are sending them to the
wrong address. Right now I
This is a forwarded message I recieved and I think that this is something
everyone should be involved in. Without rootsweb, none of the genealogy
Rootsweb lists that exist (over 5,000!) wouldn't be here. They have done
so much for all of us, and I am sure some are you are very aware of what
they do. All the things like the genweb archives and everything are housed
at Rootsweb and without them, things like the censuses in the archives,
mortality schedules, etc., wouldn't be accessible to us over the compu
Hello everyone, I have a suggestion/thought about supporting rootsweb. I
received a message earlier from someone who had sent that cookbook thing to
about a dozen lists and a couple more dozen people and in it, she said
something that made me think...If everyone who received it just donated
even $1, there would easily be a couple hundred total for rootsweb....what
do you say we try that?? I have 7 lists and 2 of them have over 100 people
on them (Black and Bradford) and the other lists combined would be m
Ok everyone, i only had 2 people from this list give me suggestions, don't
be shy, send them in:) Thanks to the people who DID send suggestions, I
will be using them in the next few weeks. Start your modems and post your
New York Barringer lines:) and if you don't have a NY related line, but
still want to post, you are more than welcome to:) Good luck.

Ok everyone, no one really sent me a suggestion for the word of the week
for this week and it's already Wednesday. If you have ANY suggestions, let
me know. Also, for those that are new to the lists, I just wanted to tell
you WHAT the "word of the week" is all about.
In the past, these lists have been very inactive, weeks could go by with
not one post, and I wanted to get activity up. I started a "program" for
the word of the week where I give a word/phrase, such as John or North
Carolina, and anyone w

Ok everyone, we have had a bunch of new subscribers to ALL the lists.
Because of this, I would like people to start posting their lines. Unlike
almost every list, I don't discourage Roll Calls because I know they have
helped me. (Please make note that MOST lists will UNSUBSCRIBE you by hand
if you start a roll call, so keep it on these lists please) I am sorry if
you don't like Roll Calls, and if you feel it necessary to unsub because of
it, well, that's your loss. I DO have a couple guidelines for Roll
Hi all of you Barringer desc., especially New York desc.
Many of the New York Barringers went to Michigan, some went further to
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Washington, etc.
My problem is that I don't have access to census records outside of
New York State.
I need to find people who would be willing to do some census lookups
in Wisconsin - Minnesota - Iowa so that I can help people get their
Barringers back to New York so that I can then connect them to the
original immigrant.
Thank you. Barbara

Hello everyone. I want to thank you all for your help. I am still looking
for stories on using the census from 1790-1850, territorial censuses, and
searching for minority ancestors with the census (African-American, Native
American, Melungeon, etc.). I got a really good story that is really funny
so I thought I would share it with all y'all. Enjoy and thanks for your
sharing. I tried to get back to everyone to thank them personally, but
there were over 150 stories sent to me!:) I appreciate it.

This was received from Brian Leverich, one of the main forces behind
RootsWeb. Although this hasn't been a problem on any of my lists so far, I
thought I would send this to prevent this problem from occuring on these
lists. What brought this message from Brian about was that someone had sent
a post to more than 50 lists at once...which is really excessive, If you
feel you need to cross post, let's make it a rule that you aren't to cross
post to more than 7 lists max:) (by the way, the only reason I cross
Hello everyone. First off, I apologize for sending this to so many lists at
once. I didn't want to have to retype this out and send it to each list
seperately, especially since I have a disconnected finger:). Second, let me
tell you what I'm looking for and why. I am looking for any stories that
any of you can share with me, good and bad, about you experience with using
the census for genealogy research. This could be anything, an example could
be hunting for an ancestor when the name was misspelled.

My GGGrandfather was Conrad Baringer, born 3-10-1832 in Bavaria, Germany.
Died 5-20-1901 in North Branch, NY Sullivan Co. His mother's name was
Barbara (only inf. I have on his parents) He married Dorothea Pillion.
Their daughter (my
G-Grandmother) was Wilhelmina Baringer born 2-18-1856. She married
Woodworth Ballard. I'm not sure if these are Wilhelmina's brothers and
sisters or not. Jack, Katie, Charles, Dora and Henry.
If anyone connects up I'll try to find more info.

Hi, I visited and added to:
http://www.genforum.com/barringer/
QUESTION: how does one get in touch with the people who are listed
there? I gave my Email address, but it doesn't show up and neither
does anyone elses.
I want to get in touch with those who are desc. of Henry and Abigail
Hough Barringer and the person who is looking for Smith Barringer in
Canada.
