Why do I suddenly feel older than dirt?! LOL
Under drive-ins...gotta be the A&W drive ins with those frosted glass mugs
of cold root beer....

I haven't begun my newsletter yet....I have two lines that I want to start a
newsletter for....My Thomas line and My Walbrick/Wolbrueck line.

I was thinking about the Titles ....THOMAS TIMES (okay,but not great...)...
Will gladly accept any ideas....the name is so common! Maybe after I start
publishing, I can get some interest in this research from family
members...most have been little help so far.

For the Walbrick/Wolbrueck lines...I think I want to use a partial meaning of
the name in its original german spelling. The name means wool bridge...so I
thought maybe call it The Bridge. There have been several recent really
incredible connections with this line in the past eight months or so.

Any input?

Carrie
