Alderman Pack, an ancestor of the above mentioned Packs, was a member of Parliament during Cromwell's time, and he moved that body to confer the title of Protector on Cromwell. There is authority for saying that a Mr. Pack, an English General, who fought in the Peninsula Campaign and in France and Portugal against Napoleon, was one of the ancestors of the Packs who came to America and settled on New River. Mrs. Emily Landgraff, who lived near Pack's Ferry, said that she had seen her grandfather, Samuel Pack, the first Samuel, and that he was an old gentleman of the English type, who dressed in the frock coat and knee breeches peculiar to the eighteenth century and that he wore a cue. Samuel Pack, who married Harriet French, was a lawyer by profession, and long practiced in Giles and adjoining counties. But, I find that the programs pay enough for my direct usage to pay for my monthly internet connection and the host for this website.
Payment is based on either hours of use or a percentage of revenue generated by the ads.
The best and first of these programs is All Advantage . You must be actively surfing the web to get paid for your time. Another of my favorites is Desktop Dollars . You are paid for any activity as long as the ad bar is running and you are connected to the internet. Most are at present sending no more than a few messages a week.
