Subject: [TNRUTHER] Roll Call-Civil War Ancestors


> Doing this a little differently this time. Instead of your Rutherford
County, TN surnames, if you have a Rutherford County, TN Civil War ancestor,
send information about him to the roll call. I am thinking of doing a Civil
War Ancestor page, so if you don’t mind me using the information you send,
let me know and if you would like your contact information on the page, put
it in the email as to how you would like it to be listed. If you don’t want
the information to be included on the webpage, please say so in your email
to the list. I hope to get this up sometime after the beginning of the new
year. If we have multiple entries for the same guy, all information will be
included with each person being given credit for what they sent. There is
NO limit to the number of ancestors you can send as long as they were born,
lived, died or enlisted in Rutherford County. I hope this will be fun for
everyone and the page informative once it is finished.

> Also I will be offline for a few hours. My house is in need of cleaning
as is my harddrive so I am setting up a defrag and going to scrub floors.
If you need assistance today, just send me an email and I will try and get
to it first thing in the morning. Sorry for the delay, but the floors are
getting sticky around here and the harddrive has slowed down some.
