    Vicky, for me to succeed, I 1st asked the ancestor's for help. Then I tried asking family members information. I ran into a lot of opposition and angry people. One aunt put me out of her family and told me to leave HER father alone. Her father is my grandfather...go figure! It just made me more dete..

    Allen, Got everything and I am going to try all you suggest, BUT FIRST, wouldn't you know my ink cartridge went dry on me. Maybe that's a sign to be patient. I once tried contacting cemetery offices (3 for other ancestors) and not one time did I get any response. Maybe I'll try one more time. It can..

    6  Re: I'm Back....FTM 2008...MY FTM 2008 HAS STOPPED - E.T.
    It seems that this thread is exhausted. Anyone using this software who is having problems with it, should contact the manufacturer. Asking another user how new software should work is probably not the best route to take. Most new software has some issues, that's why the manufacturers make "fixes" to..

    8  Did Your Grandmother Vote? - E.T.
    If she was an adult (21 years old) before 1920, she did not have the right to vote! Few women had the right to vote in most states of the U.S. before 1920 . The 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is what (finally) gave all adult U.S. females voting rights. African American men & women helped to..

    11  Re: [MISCellany] What Would Your Question Be? - Golson
    I have too many questions to possibly list. My one overwhelming sense is of awe, that so many of you were able to trace your family trees back so far through slavery. Some even mentioned deep maternal ancestry. This web site is truly an inspiration to all of (us) amateur genealogist with African ens..
