Hi!!!! John, ALL : )

I take it you have not been on this List for long for if you had you would
have *NEVER* said what you said. I only have one post from you unless I have
miss file ALL the NEW *John BAIRD* post lately to me as ONE on ONES, Is why I
ASK stay with the Group. Now if I get one lil bitty piece of info from a post
to help me help someone then I jump in with foot in mouthy trying to help as I
have seen these past few years of being on this List that ALL DO. If I can't
help I don't reply or if I know of someone that can help I send the person
that direction.

The one post I have from you was what I call a great post but still didn't
have a lil bitty tip for me to help you, wish I could have for I enjoying
helping anyone I can for SO MANY MANY MANY etc. have helped Me on and off this
List. (Meaning snail-mail) that don't have computers and also those that do on
list also.

This is a SUPER GREAT GROUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they
HELP each other whether in their line or not if they have info to help with.
If you feel WE are helping only certain ones then that is because we have the
info to help them with and the ONLY reason for ALL is SPECIAL on this List
including you. NO turn aways No snubbing.

The *unknown secret* POST to *GROUP* Get that info out there as much as you
can, as soon as YOU SUB don't LURK for people come and go and the one that
maybe can help might UNSUB thinking nothing is here for them. Now lurking is
good as times but I have a big mouthy who seems to keep footy in it a lot that
keeps me from lurking.. : ) Come on <SMILE> You'l end up loving this list and
ALL members on it.

Now the some areas in your post look familiar to me, Maybe cause I live in
Union Twshp., Clermont Co., Ohio. Nah!!!! That's not the reason, : ) there is
researchers on this list that have info from the areas you mention including
me but doesn't mean I have the names you have, doesn't mean I don't have them
either, just means I didn't make a click. Meaning nothing matched.

Hang in here John it is a SUPER GREAT GROUP!!!!! as I said above, has to be
they survive me. If someone can help you they will. Now I would like, if you
don't mind to see the other post I missed just in case I did miss file in
wrong John BAIRD folder.

Merry Christmas to ALL and the BEST of the New Year to Ya' : )

Later Fran/Franny : ) John's posts follows below.

Is there some unknown secret to getting help in researching a Baird line in
this forum? I have posted three times with no response. I thought when I
first discovered this list that someone out there could help me over a 20
year old hurdle in my research, but I guess you have to belong to some elite
old-boys group to get any help. Sorry that I disturbed your solitude with a
post requesting help.

Have a great holiday...
