Norma,
Isn't it wonderful that most of the people we meet doing genealogy are so
helpful and understanding? I've met so many people online that are
searching for their roots. And even more wonderful is that I've met
relatives, not to distant, as a result of the posts and sharing of
information.

I, too am not able to get out to do research any more, but that doesn't stop
me from sharing that part of history that I was able to dig up when I was
going to cemeteries, libraries, courthouses, visiting relatives and almost
relatives.

I think the internet and the different family forums are quite wonderful.
I've never been able to see so much information at once. Sometimes it's not
right, but often even the incorrect ones give you a little clue here or
there that allow you do dig up even more information.

I really appreciate the posts, and the sharing of information that you and
others are so willing to do. It gives me so much more opportunity to add to
my information than I could do on my own.

Thanks ever so much to you and all the others who are willing to share.

J. C. Bell ()
