I am posting this on both of your walls; I hope it tells the Genealogy Wise world what a great help you both are.
I was teasing when I complained about buying another book. I told my husband about Producing a Family History, by Patricia Law Harper on Tuesday morning; he promptly ordered it and now I'm the happy owner of a new-to-me guide to improving my skills in Genealogy. I have read "What to Write; When to Write It" almost like reading a novel. But, truly, I'm treating this book more seriously than that. I may just make working copies of ALL the checklists as I apply different chapters to my work.
Thank both of you again for an interesting presentation which led me to owning a very useful book.
I'm afraid not - unless your Gorton's are from NY. David Gorton (b. 9/7/1940, d. 1/3/2005) married Nada Van Dee (husband's side of the tree). I don't recognize any of the other last names.
Hi, Dae - I have a genealogy club meeting tonight and would love to be in on your chat of Organizing Your Research. Are your chats transcribed- could I please get a copy of tonights (Nov. 9, 2009) chat? Sorry- I usually don't get home until 10:30- hour and a half after you start (here in New Jersey). Thanks. Ellen
What sir names are you researching? My maiden name was Williams - that's as bad as Smith when it comes to genealogy. I am also searching my married name which I've hit a brick wall on also. What names are you researching?
Dae - Hello! My 4th Great Grandmother is Martha Dixon born 1749 in Pa her Parents are John Dixon and Rebecca Cox of New Castle, De. father: - Henry Dixon of Christiana 100, New Castle County De - father: William Dixon, Sego Armaugh, Ireland.
My McKenzies are from Ardelve, Ross-shire and the croft house that they owned is still thatched and under a preservation order. We think they are likely Gairloch MacKenzies descended from Hector Roy, but all of the male line has died out so we can't do DNA testing. If you have any male MacKenzies, they might want to join the project and test at 37 markers, then we can know if they are descended from Alexander Ionriac, chief in the 1400's.
Hi Dae! Yes we'll be friends. :) I am indeed named Dixie and living in Indiana. While I'm from southern Virginia, I've found more Dixie's here than I've ever known before! And Jack is my maiden name and has given me trouble all my life. I even had a cabdriver refuse to let me in once because he was looking for a man name Jack!
Halber is indeed Jewish, but I'm not, my husband is. All of the above colluded to fool one of my husband's distant cousins. I'd located him on the Internet, provided him with some information he was missing and asked some questions. He just couldn't wrap his head around the fact that this woman named Dixie in Indiana was claiming to be related! :D
I love the photo you posed on my page! Cool. I also think these scammers got thrown off GenWise. I sure hope so! Time to get back to genealogy.

Beware!
Everybody has received this scam makemoneywith--on GenWise. We don't need this scam. I sent in a complaint by clicking on "report issues" you find at the bottom of the page. There's lots of information on the Internet about this scam. This is just one link:

Thanks, Dae. He was Sherman J. Powell of Sherman, Grayson, Texas. Born 16 May 1878, died 30 Oct 1956. His father was Ambrose Powell. Mother Margaret M. Smith. His second wife was Marie Conally. Georgia was my great-aunt.
I am researching Sherman Powell who lived in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was married to Georgia (Grace) Colonia Hill Hammond Powell and owned Powell's market. After Georgia's death he married a woman named Marie.
Curious to know what line of Coles in MA are you related to. Looks like you have an interesting gen background along with some interesting information here on GenWise. Look forward to checking back often to your profile. I just joined GenWise the other day and it's been quite interesting so far. .
Hi, Dae, Thanks for the friend invitation! I'm actually an American myself, also from Texas (Amarillo), but in 1995 I moved to Brighton here in England. I'm really looking forward to hearing your podcasts (I've just started listening to podcasts on my iPod) and learning more from you!
Hello Dae!
