Hi Everybody:
You've noticed that Rootsweb is apparently sending out informational
material through this
Norby Family. Let me know what you think? Do you like it? If you don't I
can put this address on the 'do not accept list'. Let me know......

Hi Linda and the list,
Everything that I share is in the weekly newsletter that all subscribers to
rootsweb mailing lists automatically receive unless they have unsubscribed
themselves. This is a rootsweb mailing list! I was just sharing what I
thought others might find useful! As the list owner I guess you have a
right to put out a message such as you did on THIS NORBY FAMILY. It's like
being slapped in the face if you really want to know how I feel.
Did you unsubscribe yourself to the newsletter so
I for one enjoy reading your list. Keep up the good work!
