Yes - They accept both MasterCard and Visa

There is a $CDN 0.50 service charge on orders of
less than $CDN 5.00.  So, laddies and lassies since
the basic rate from Canada to the US is 48 cents,
do not order 10 stamps and incur a 50 cent service
charge.  Rather order 11 stamps for $CDN 5.28 and
avoid the charge.  If you pay with plastic the
currency conversion is done by the banks and you will
not have to worry about any fluctuations.

Hey, there is a very similar question related to recording the name.  Should
I use the name as recorded at birth, or perhaps the name in it's
"Americanized" version, assuming the person emigrated to USA.  Or perhaps
the commonly used nickname.  Obviously all can be quite significant in
researching this person.  

I not only go along with Fred Rump on recording the area name as it existed
at the time of the genealogical event (birth), but also the individual's
name as recorded at that event!  Obviously, a cross reference, footnote, or
some other guide should also be included.

    re: French Christian name "Jean-Baptiste"

    It was common for children in French/Quebec families, who did not live
    long enough to be baptised and given their true Christian name, to be
    given the name Jean-Baptiste.  In some cases the sex of the chilren was
    in question.

    I have one instance in my family history "GUILBAULT" of an adult
    appearing out of nowhere, who had the exact birthdate of a
    "Jean-Baptiste".  One must assume the child lived (recovered?), or the
    birth record was incorrect.

Hi Robert,
This time it worked!  Would you consider adding some location info to all your surnames?  If you do then the TT could be entered into a Tafel Matching System.  As it stands now TMS rejects it.

Paul Weaver has commented about naturalization records being located
in places other than county records, which is an excellent suggestion.
In addition, for Bill Green who originally asked the question, do NOT
fail to search neighboring counties for any type of records that seem
to have "disappeared" from the county in which the ancestor resided.
In addition to the fact that county boundaries change (usually as more
counties are created), some residents simply found it more convenient to
enter vital statistics (e.g., births, marriages, deaths, BUT probably
not land records) in a neighboring county. For example, I found that
my parents marriage records and both sets of grandparents marriage
records were in neighboring counties (and not the same, although
they lived close together) rather than in their counties of
residence.

Matt,

A couple of us Mac/PAF users have asked this question before and the
answer was "there currently  is no automatic GEDCOM to TT progam for
the Mac."  Of course it is pretty easy to construct one by hand but
being a techno nerd I decided to try my had at writing one.  I
understand that there is at least one other Mac user doing the same.
Since I am using this as an exercise in learning to write Macintosh
programs (not something for the faint of heart) I may never get it
finished BUT if I do, I will post it to this group and make it
available to those that ask.  PLEASE don't ask now since I may NEVER
get the program running and at best I am only spending a few minutes a
day on the program.

YES, YES, YES!!!I am getting rejection messages from CEO.

I do not know why I am getting these messages either.  However, I did
receive a message about Fidonet and people with 132 characters vs. those
with only 72.  Unfortunately, I am not that advanced in my computer
knowledge and have no idea what if anything I am doing wrong.

My best guess is that messages that come out on Roots-L are then further
distributed to/thru Fidonet?  Apparently, at this point there must be
some difficulty.  Obviously, the more people who can see the messages
posted here the better.

Perhaps someone will update the rest of us (in simple man's language
please) as to what is up.

If you are looking for German records, I'm not sure that you would
find them in an LDS family history center in Germany.  Most of the

I continue to be just totally amazed at the wealth of knowledge that the

related, I have found Fred Rump's responses and general info quite
helpful.  Thanks for all of the wonderful addresses in what was
once East Germany.  I would be interested in that book Fred mentioned
when I first signed on to Roots-L, where can I find/order that again?

My g g g grandfather came from Nieder Wueste Giersdorf, Schlesien Kreis
Waldenburg.  I was wondering if someone could refer me to a particular
book or give a brief history of Nieder/Ober Schlesien?  Also, I have a
"Loosungs Schein" which appears to be a draft card issued in 1842 for
his brother, Karl August Leistritz.  Was this normal for the period or
was there a particular war that was taking place?

Since I know where the family originated from in Prussia, what would be
my next step in tracing this family?

Military record from WWI to the present are kept at a place called something like

you're interested. However, they had a fire about 20 years ago, and pretty much
everything interesting about a person's record, genealogically speaking, is gone.
I have tried to get information about one person in WWI, and two in WWII, and
basically all that I got back was their service number, date of death, and I think
a parents name. Nothing about which unit they were in, where they were killed, etc
was in the file. If you want to try anyways, let me know and I'll dig out the
info.

Once again.. we have all experienced it. The present systems make
oversimplified assumptions

It used to be more or less reasonable to say "of someplace".. but
where am I of?
Born Pittsburg PA, childhood in Sewickley, NYC and Huntington, LI NY
.... education lots of places..
Professional life in New Haven, Conn., Bethesda, MD, Baltimore, MD,
Santa Monica, CA
I hope to die in France :_)(
..and I havn't moved around alot!

Could some knowledgable Buckeye tell me if the Glen Haven Cemetary
in Harrison, Ohio is still an active cemetary?  If not, would you happen
to know who holds the cemetary records?  I have numerous ancestors
buried there and would like their burial records/death certificates
as well as see what Uncles, Aunts, and Cousins are also buried there.

Thanks in Advance,
