Yes Becky, you hit the nail right square on the head... Marie is an Angel... A Genealogy Angel... Now, as for you Miss Marie. I would just like to say, that you are the very picture of a genealogist... I have found many many Angels such as yourself, since I started genealogy as a something to do hobby almost 3 years ago... Without the generous, unselfish, selfless exchanges of their information to mine, from just such Angels, I would be still at a few hundred ancestors, instead of almost 20,000. I thought that people would get tired of me always asking question's and seeking info, and never being able to contribute any knowledge of my own, but they never have. 20,000 people later, and they one's I know, are still responding to my queries generously... Finally a year or so ago, I became knowledgeable enough, that some hunter's happened by looking for their ancestors, and I was able to help. And I learned that that feeling you get from helping someone find that family member !
that means so much to them, is why so many of us pop up and say, "Hi, my name is Patti, and I live in Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio, and if there's anything that I can look up, or research from the Ohio Historical Society, or the Libraries Archive's, please feel free to give me a holler. Alway's glad to help, Patti" P S, And I meant that to by the way. Keep up the good work Marie, and in case no one's told you lately, you are much appreciated... Patti
