Subject: [EDWARDS-L] Day 2 of True Family Research
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2000 15:26:43 EDT


Hello,
I have recently sent out a letter to a lot of lists I feel that if we are
all going to try to help each other in research then we should all have the
same information. I have been recieving a number of letters that have asked
me to look someone up I will take all those letters into consideration and in
two days when i send this big gedcom out to those people who have at least
offered some support by giving a date or two are those who will recieve the
gedcom. You may not think that this is fair but read the letter at the bottm
of the page and you will see why i feel this way about the people who offered
no support at all! Now on another note let me make clear to everybody one
thing If you send me your gedcom i will add it in to this tree that i making
it is called the "Cascading Family Tree" It has, As we speak, 54,147
individuals in it. And in two days i will send it to every person that has
either gave me a ged com file or that has wrote to me telling me information
to add to this family file. So think about what i am saying and reflect on
how you react and make sure you read the letter at the bottom of the page it
is written to one of the lists about the last letter I sent out! You should
keep that thought in mind!

Here is the letter that was written to another list about my first letter
that had sent out:
"You know I never could understand all this. Why the secrets?? Why the
selfish?? Sounds like alot of spoiled kids. "Me first, me first." I don't
have much Jones info at this time or I would gladly send it. I'm on several
other list and we have no trouble exchanging. For every little thing I have
sent, I have been GREATLY rewarded. I think nothing of sending all I have.
Why are we doing this? If not to help others and learn more ourselves. I can
see y'all now when you get a new piece of info. "oh, let me hide this. It
might make someone's day, but I'm not going to let go of it," I bet y'all are
sure fun to live with."
