1. Some suggestions & answers, alternatives to the Ancestry.com saga [1]
Hi, Have been reading the many varying degrees of do i, should, are they aren't they, etc. First thing The Ancestry World Tree entries are still on the site and as far as i see are still free. They are just farther down the results page now. The 1880 US census is FREE at http://www.familysearch.org or .com either one. Click on census and use the drop down boxes for each entry. You don't even have to have the exact spelling or use a wildcard. It's an everyname in hh index. (But to fuel the conspiracy th

Are there not ferries? What about that famous undersea tunnel?

3. Re: [LDR] What I have found using Ancestry.com and now One World Tree [1]
I was very angry with Ancestry (MyFamily.com) last year over my private websites having advertising banners put on them one month after I signed up. I screamed bloody murder and cited my long and expensive membership. They finally gave in and took the banners off. So, complain loudly and frequently and they may give you what you want rather than lose you as a customer.

5. Deal Island, Wenona Photos [1]
Happy Halloween, one and all! I currently find myself faced with leaving the Eastern Shore for what looks like a long time and I'm consumed by nostalgia. One of the things I wish I had photographed during my summers on Deal Island was the old buildings at Wenona, where sails, etc. were made. If anyone should happen to have photos they could email me, I would be ever so appreciative. I would also gladly pay for hard copies. Faye Somers Lewis

10. RE: [LDR] This Was Chesapeake Bay [1]
Hello Dave, It sounds like a beautiful book, and if I can ever save up enough pennies.... In the meantime, I wonder if there is any mention of a Captain Jonathan Dennis Cathell, or a schooner line that ran from Georgetown (District of Columbia) to New York in the 1840s or 50s.

11. Re: [LDR] What I have found using Ancestry.com [1]
I agree with the positive comments about census material available on Ancestry.com. I have greatly expanded my knowledge of my ancestors based on these census images, including English census material. I have also found the Historical Newspapers Collection useful for two of the lines I am researching. I have never had my subscription renewed without a phone call from Ancestry.com. In fact, I had just such a call just prior to reading this group of emails about Ancestry.com. Although I have not sub

I am fortunate to have Ancestry on my computer at my volunteer job. But I prefer Heritage Quest for census. If you are not familiar with HQ it is available to Libraries. Check your local (do not forget your contiguous libraries, they usually will give you a library card) see if they have Heritage Quest on line that you can get free from home by just typing in your card number. For two years I have subscribed for $35 per year for HQ and other databases, paying by check (I did not want them to a

16. Re: [LDR] What I have found using Ancestry.com [1]
I would like to echo Bruce's comments and add a couple of observations. The census services from ancestry.com (and probably genealogy.com if you think you need both) are invaluable and well worth the cost. First, you get the convenience of having the actual images available at home on your computer - no library or FHC trips, no waiting for microfilms to be delivered. Second, you get the ability not just to depend on someone else's reading of a particular listing, but to see it yourself. Third, you get t

19. Re:What I have found using Ancestry.com and now One World Tree [1]
I don't like the idea of these add on charges for each seperate set of reference items either, as in the beginning I started using Ancestry.com for most of my Internet research, but as has been mentioned, I would have spent much more going to archives, court houses, and libraries to obtain this info. I used to use Rootsweb for a lot of my research, but they got swallowed up by Ancestry.com and to keep up my addictive hobby, I bought into Ancestry.com. At that time there was only one fee. I jus
20. Re: [LDR] Re: This was Chesapeake Bay [1]
If you notify the Bridge Police ahead of time--they will arrange to drive you over the bridge. The best advice is not to look down and stay away from the lanes with the grids that allow rain water to drain. Right now I would not advise going near the bridge, they are in the middle of trying to rectify all the construction miscues of last summer on the west bound span and are shutting down quite a few lanes as well as re-routing one lane of traffic to the east bound span making the back ups overwhelming.

Thank you very much for your offer to help. Lorine has offered to copy the book for me. I sure am excited about it, been looking a long time for it, including trying for an interlibrary loan. Yes, I am of the Eastern Shore MD. Parsons. My Henrietta Parsons married a Jeremiah Jackson, in 1827, Snowhill, Worcester Co. Again, thanks for your offer, really appreciate it!!

Hello, Help. It's as if they didn't really exist. I am trying to learn something about my great grandparents (my father's mothers' family). Her name was Margaret Mason. Probably born around 1900 and her parents were Mather Mason and Ida Hopkins Mason. It is my understanding they lived in the Berlin or Newark Maryland area. Margaret was married briefly to David Pennewill of Snow Hill (of which one child, Charles, was born in 1928) and after the divorce went to Baltimore. The only other thing I
