1. Re: [PLY/MA] Mayflower Wills [1]
Janet, What Mayflower families are you talking about? Quite a few (if not all) of the wills are already on the Internet, filed by ancestors. Try http://www.mayflowerfamilies.com/wills/wills1.htm for starters.

I don't think they are talking about regular mailing lists, just newsgroups, I don't think it applies to Rootsweb lists Patti
3. asylum listings in census [1]
The inmate lists for the institution were sometimes part of the census for the town or county where the institution was located. I have also noticed in some cases that the individual was enumerated with the family even if he or she was absent.

Charles - I can offer only a couple of negative findings which might help to reduce the scope of your search. My initial suspicion was that it was in Rochester, as the births of three of Caleb and Anna's children were recorded there (Rochester VR 2:13). However, there are no death records in Rochester VR for any of those
5. Rootsweb / AOL [1]
Here is the answer with a link about the AOL rumor: There's a rumor going around that AOL is going to stop delivering RootsWeb mailing lists to AOL users. Not true. It's a misinterpretation of AOL's dropping newsgroup (usenet) support for AOL subscribers, started by folks who don't know the difference between newsgroups and mailing lists. AOL subscribers will continue to get their RW mailing lists delivered as always. I mention it here because there's a fair chance the confused will turn up either in
6. Elizabeth B. Coombs [1]
Thanks to David Richardson for sharing the great web site with the Massachusetts governmental phone number listings! I called the Abington Town Clerk this morning, and the Clerk found the birth certificate for James William Coombes for me. It was exciting! It appears James W. never sent in the correction, and the last name on it was spelled as "Coombs," instead of "Coombes" and the birth date is December 22, 1867, which I did not have. The mother is listed as "Elizabeth B." not the "Elizabeth R." that
7. Plymouth Marriage Records? [1]
I have learned that marriage records exist for both Samuel Coombes and Mary F. Coombes. Is there a way to access them free on the Internet?

8. Re: [PLY/MA] James William Coombes of Plymouth, MA? [1]
Hello! Just found an old letter in storage, dated October 26, 1942. It is signed by a John Coughlan, Town Clerk, of Abington, Massachusetts. It says he had enclosed with this letter a certificate of birth which apparently was that of the ancestor in question, James W. Coombes, though the first and middle names were not included on the record, and that birth certificate is not with this letter. So this must mean that James W. Coombes was born in Abington, Massachusetts, because he sent to that town for
9. John B. Coombes Institutionalization [1]
Natalie, Thank you so much for your help! I'd been looking all over for this piece of info, as I figured he must have been institutionalized for mental illness, since he didn't show up as living at home on the census records Jennifer so kindly found for me, and in the 1880 one he is listed as "insane." Does anyone know whether the Taunton State Hospital has any sort of records open to the public on patients of his era, and/or how I'd go about obtaining them? Simone hatsandhandfans@yahoo.com
10. Records from asylums and mental hospitals [1]
Some inmates were listed in the census, some historical groups have the old records in their collections and they may also have the old court records, especially if the individual was committed and had children needing a guardian.

Greetings, Belatedly, but none the less sincerely, I wish to thank the individuals who responded to my posting asking about Plymouth Colony Laws. Best wishes, Rev. Dr. Doug Showalter
12. lost stones... [1]
Dear List Members: Somewhere in either of the following, Rochester, Marion, Mattapoisett or Middleborough, there has to be a cemetery that has a rot iron fence and gate. At the right of this gate, if my memory serves me right, there were rocks marked Cowing. Infant child Warren, then Caleb Cowing & Anna (Richmond) Cowing of Middleborough. In the second row was a John Cowing & Israel Cowing. I visited this cemetery during my teens and made the remark that since these were marked with yellow paint it

I work at a State Hospital in Pa. There are new laws in place regarding privacy. HIPA it is called. NOBODY can access records no matter the age of the record, only in a certain few cerimcstances.

15. AOL members only [1]
Did you know AOL is no longer supporting our mailing lists as of yesterday? I had seen the notice but did not realize our mailing list is considered a "newsgroup". Maybe if all AOL members sent a complaint they would change this policy? Q: Message: I have heard the rumor that AOL will, sometime in January, no longer accept e-mails from newsgroups such as my genealogy newsgroups. Is this true? If so, how do you suggest I then receive those messages? Thank you for your help. A: The AOL Newsgroup
16. Re: Mayflowers Wills [1]
It sounds like Janet got a lot of help from several people and that is great, that is what these lists are for, I believe. What is the logic behind someone replying directly to her with information and not to the remainder of the list? I only saw one response to her. Is that a list policy? Did someone previously get in trouble with maybe 'flooding' the list with the same subject? Are there some who find it offensive to see emails which have no interest to them? I'm curious about this. Seems like this shoul
17. Lunatic status from census reports [1]
You mentioned inmates on the census, do you mean the census for the hospital or for their former home? The reason I ask, my ancestor, who I previously mentioned, is listed on the 1870 census last, his wife is listed as head of household, then the children, then his "name, lawyer, previously, Lunatic" He was diagnosed & committed in 1866, and finding his name on the census is one of the things that makes me think he was in & out of the institution, and may have been home at the time of the ce
