3. Re: RESEARCH-HOWTO-D Digest V99 #352 [1]
I am posting to the list, since reburials happen more often that one might think. In the case of Smith Mountain lake, on the border of Franklin/Bedford/Pittsylvania counties (in Virginia), the local utility company was the prime agency responsible for the move of many gravesites and cemeteries. They were kind enough to send me copies of their study/records, which spanned several years. The actual removals were handled by one of the local funeral homes, who also maintained records of what they did. Most re
4. How would I go about this--Rowe, Cowart [1]
Need a little information on how to go about this. In 1889, Tom Cowart murdered Newton Rowe in Winston County, Alabama. Would this be on any records, if so what records would I look for and where would I find them? I have no idea where to start looking or what to look for, but surely there would be some record somewhere. Thanks Carol RS Most wanted surnames: *ROWE*WEST*SIDES*CASTLEBERRY*BROWN*DEAN/DEEN*MORPHEW *TOWNSEND*
5. California and Cook County, Illinois Vitals to purchase [1]
Are California and Cook County, Illinois vital records available for purchase ? Are they on CD or microfiche ? Cost ? Address ? I know at one time they were available in Calif, but do not know if they still are. Thank you, Sandee
6. vital records [1]
When you send for vital records, and they send your application back, keep trying. I have sent for records and had them respond saying that they did not have these records. I ignore it and send again, and again. And finally, someone would get off of their rear-end and open a file cabinet and actually look. Finally, I would get the records in the mail. Everytime they tell me they do not have the record, I always try about 4 or 5 times again and again. If after about 5 tries they continue to say that th
7. Re:Losing your records on FTM [1]
I can certainly sympathize with anyone who has lost his files while working on these programs. While being very new at this, I recently was working on my FTM trying to figure out (without readiing the manual) how to do a backup. Suddenly I had NO files. For a couple of weeks, I slowly re-entered my information (formerly 400 names). One day while clicking on the File area I came across my missing names. I still haven't a clue how I accomplished this (still haven't read the manual yet), but now that I ha

9. RE: Vital Records [1]
They keep the money in AL also. I go to the AL Archives and look up the person on the Death Index - and the certificate number. When they tell me they don't have it, I give them the certificate number - and amazingly, they find it.

11. Re: RESEARCH-HOWTO-D Digest V99 #352 [1]
Hi, I don't know if this info will help in your situation but since I knew where the final resting place was, however... I had a great grandfather who was moved from one cemetery to another one in a different town where his wife was buried some 50 years later. Both cemeteries had a record of it. On the other side of the family my grandparents had a parent and two grandparents moved to the family lot to keep things tidy. It certainly helps from a genealogy standpoint to have everyone together
12. Keeping fees [1]
Everytime I've sent for vital records from the dept of health in Ohio, PA, and KY, if the records were not found, the $10 fee was ALWAYS returned. This $10 is payment for a certified copy, NOT payment for their time in researching. If there's no certified copy, there's no charge. And you can get an uncertified copy for much less. I forget the amount as I always get a certified copy. Jack

I have not saved most of the civil war information that has come across the list because I did not know I might need it later (duh). Just this week I got a family history questionnaire back and it indicated that I am looking for the Blair family of Mt. Bethel Va. Any information on Virginia Civil War records would be greatly appreciated and this time I won't delete!! Thanks for the help Leah Cheatham

17. Saving files to zip drive [1]
I'd like to know if there is a way of doing this short of what I've been doing. I have literally hundreds of genealogy e-mails that I have saved in my AOL personal filing cabinet. I have created categories with file names and e-mails stored in each. In some file folders I have sub-folders. The only way I can figure to save them to disk where they are easily opened and accessed is to save each e-mail in a word processing file (I use Word) and then save them either in folders on a zip disk or on the
18. Re: RESEARCH-HOWTO-D Digest V99 #335 [1]
In trying to locate my grandfather's naturalization papers (from New York City, no less) I tried to obtain my grandfathers passport application from 1923 only to be stymied to find out that he renewed it in 1926 for which there are no indexes that I know of. My question is, how much information do I actually need to send to the INS in order to find his naturalization papers. I have his naturalization date, his birthday and his birthplace. Do I have enough to do a search for his naturalization papers? Any he
19. Re: Keeping fees [1]
You can't always get an uncertified copy. Each state has their own rules I guess. I sent $20 to Washington for 2 death certs and they called me saying the price had gone up to $13 each so I needed to send an additional $6. I thought about uncertified copies and asked about that. The response was "we do not do that, they must be certified." I put a notice out to a couple lists that I am on to see if anyone living in that area would be willing to look them up for me and someone responded that they would.
20. RE: Writing your family history [1]
Microsoft Word can wrap text around an object. I don't remember exactly when the feature was added but it was well before the Office 97 version. Some of the more full-featured genealogy programs allow you to create wonderful reports, complete with pictures and lots of text you add in as you would in a word processing program. That's another option, especially if you don't want to purchase lots of software. For example, I have Ultimate Family Tree and can do everything you described with that program. I

22. Reburials [1]
Hi List, Does anyone know who keeps records in cases of cemetary reburials. Is is strictly the cities and local towns or does the state get in on it. I am referring to a reburial around 1900. The people were moved from a church who decided they did not want the cemetary there any more. They were reburied somewhere in the city. Any response please reply to: orca.2000@juno.com

24. Passport [1]
My deceased mother was able to obtain a passport in the 1970's even though she did not have a birth certificate. The place where she was born in 1917 burned down and all the records were lost. I do not know how she obtained a passport. Is a passport a valid register of birth for genealogical purposes? Does anyone know if there is some way to receive a copy of someone's passport application? If so, where would I write and had anyone had any luck with this? Thanks. Robin in Atlanta
