HI Lin

Don't get mad please but I'm
Sorry I have to agree with those that don't think this is Genealogy. Below
is the Rootsweb Mailing list for this and as it says it" keeps the Genealogy

This is a very helpful List usually but do we need 3 days of how to use a
Knife, or boil and egg.
Merry Xmas
Trudie
