You should see 5 sub-items. Select Messages. In the Messages box, make sure that the first check-box is NOT checked. It is labeled "By default, send HTML messages." Click OK. If you are using Eudora Pro, Outlook Express, or Outlook 98, or need to see the Netscape screen for Communicator, see the web page at: http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/listowners/html-off.htm The images are all small, but you can click on the one you need and get an enlarged image. Feel free to send a test message TO ME (not the list) at cgaunt@umich.edu.

I don't share information with the Family Tree Maker or the LDS Library. I put all that blood sweat and tears into that research. I can't stand people who profit from my hard work. I started doing research on my Genealogy, to discover just who and what nationality my maiden name was. I have now solved that mystery. I am proud of my name and my Heritage. Has anyone checked out the Book by Susan Burnett. She lives in Scotland and she shows in her Genealogy and connections to the Land of Leys a John Burnett that came to America. It seems to fit our John. But I don't have the proof.

June Baldwin Bork > > http://www.junebaldwinbork.com Sorry but you never sent me all that info I gathered it of the Net I have the letter you sent me that does list what you gave me. And as far as removing anything down to me NO. I can put up anything that deals with me my father his mother and so on I dont belive you asked anyone in my family before you put my great grandfathers name in a book to make money. I would say that is wrong. So what you are saying is that anyone doing a Burnett tree has to stop and Buy it from you. Well I dont see how I stold anything from you I have never seen your book and never will. You ask to much money for them. I would like to know how you can own a Family Tree? It's as much my right to share infomation that I have found on the INTERNET!( KEY WORD ) for free with other's that want it. Im sorry you wanted it for a money making deal. I care more about my family's past then the Dollars I can make off of it. If anyone would like to see what this is all about you can go to http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ridge/3270/ all the info I have can be found on the internet!!!! you can also ask my family they will share with you what cant be found on the net ( The same way I got it ). And one more thing how can you tell me or anyone else not to take your stuff ( which I have never seen ) when you sale it and now plan to go online with it. Soon the whole world will have it, are you going to write everyone? -- Jerry Baker nWo 4-Life CEO nWo MotorSports Sim Racing's most winning team ever! nWo's Main Pages http://www.hyperaction.net/jbaker/ nWo Fan Club http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/2320/fan_club.html R.A.P.

Your names are your own, and of course you CAN put anything you want online, but not necessarily legally and CERTAINLY not ethically. The docmentation to prove it and the time and effort put into the genealogical interaction as a WHOLE comes under copyright. THEREFORE, if a large portion of it is plagerized, then it is a prosecutable offense, which is why we HAVE copyrights in the first place.
