Good morning Carolyn,

You seem a bit piqued that Ron is using information that you worked hard to
assemble.

When I started doing my Webb family of Jefferson, Cocke, Sevier, etc., no
one had ever heard of John and Jesse Webb. I have worked many years
researching this family and I know of no one else who has given it so much
sweat and tears.

You will find my work all over the internet and I have yet to receive credit
for anything. That does not bother me. When I come across my work, it is
very recognizeable to me and it gives me a great sense of pride. I feel a
little bit like a "Poppa". I sort of feel it would make me look small if I
broadcasted it to the world that the person involved stole my work. Anyone,
anywhere, anytime is free to use any part of my family data in their family
tree with no fear of recriminations. I just want everybody to know about my
family. Knowing about me is not important.

Jay
