I found this unusual record. Balkasar Bunker d. 21 Nov 1853 and is buried
in St. Vincent's cemetery in St. Louis, MO.
Now I wonder who he is? That was awfully early to be in St. Louis. He
could have been a voyageur and one of the Canadians or one of the
Verboncoeurs.

Brian gave me this really informative Australian site. It lists the
military participants in WW II that came from Australia. It includes their
service number, date of birth, place of birth and the service branch.

Some of the more recent messages sent to the Bunker-L mailing list pose
questions about relatives without identifying the possible connections to
anyone with a Bunker name. I realize that people doing genealogy often
belong to many lists, but if the person posting will identify the possible
connection with the Bunkers, it might help people in responding. Otherwise,
queries about individuals with other surnames are likely to go unanswered.

I believe that Kentucky has just put theirs up with the images but I don't
know of any others.
I love it that in a state with one of the highest incidences of identity
theft that we do this. Obviously, our legislature and governor, who is an
ex-attorney general and knows about the identity theft problems, are well
aware of the fact that there is no known case of identity theft from
stealing birth and death records or any other genealogical records.

If you are packing for the trip to Tucson, pack both warm and cool clothes.
The day time temps will be in the 70s and 80s. The night time temps will be
from the 40s to 60s. Tombstone and Nogales are both 1,000 feet higher than
Tucson which means they are 5-10 degrees cooler. In addition, they tend to
be windy and a cold wind on a warm day can be pretty chilly. If we don't
need sweaters or jackets, the bus driver will be staying with the bus so it
will be ok. Karchner Cave is always 68 degrees and VERY
Arizona has put birth and death records from about 1887 to 1958 online.

While waiting around for the laptop to get updated I decided to check my
spam blocker to see if I had received any legitimate messages that I wanted
to read. There were none that I had not already authorized. However, there
were 34 messages offering me things to increase the size or effectiveness of
my "ahem" "male member". Since I do not have one regardless of all the
numerous names they can think of to describe it, they are certainly a waste
of cyberspace aren't they?

An update for BFA and other Bunker-L list members. Gil Bunker, who's
computer crashed 3 1/2 weeks ago, is still unable to receive e-mail, though
progress is being made on restoring his computer capability. He notes
longingly that this has been the "longest" 3 1/2 weeks of his life.
We'll keep you posted on his progress. Hopefully he'll be back up before
leaving for the reunion in Tucscon in March.
In the meantime, feel free to contact Bette Bunker Richards with your
genealogical questions.

This is sort of a cool site. You can search by surname, using the name

Can't help you with the marriage, but "History of Durham" (Vol. 2, p. 221)
does have a Benjamin Huckins born between 1736 and 1760, noting only "no
record of any family, lived at Gilmanton". His father was Joseph Huckins,
who lived in Durham, Lee, and Gilmanton, and mother Mary Fernald.

Hi everybody. Gil Bunker's computer crashed a week ago and they have not
yet been able to get it fixed. The BFA president is currently off line and
will notify the list when he can get back on. In the interim if anyone
needs anything that they think I might be able to help with let me know.
Also, he may or may not get the messages he has been sent during the last
week. If you sent him a message and never get a response, try again when he
gets back on line.
