Gee, has it been a week already??   A lot of information was posted on Brenda's behalf - I hope it has helped her some and that she will acknowledge the work our members have done for her.  Next up is peeweeqp and his Bennett family.  His message was first posted on 6/24/02 with subsequent messages posted on other boards or threads.  From what I've seen by clicking on his name in the message box there is no mention of Illinois in any of his posts but maybe I overlooked something. It would help if these were all on the same thread, but let's see what can be done here.  For 1 week the team will attempt to look for information for peeweeqp.  Hopefully, he will post a little more information to at least give the team a good start.  His message is as follows:

Masugu,
 
You did it again...you got on the ball and shot out all this information before I even got the question.  Don't know why this happens, but I don't get my IKK messages on a daily basis.  They come every other day, or every third day, and then I get each of those days delivered at the same time.

Mel;

Actually, it works better that way. I do the 1870/1900/1910 census stuff
on Genealogy.com and then you use the data derived to do your magic with
the search machines. Our combined work provides seed data for other
types of searches by Gordon, MOM, et al., and no one person is burdened
with doing it all. Our members benefit from the multiple perspectives.
Synergy, teamwork--the best of all possible worlds. Cheers, Masugu
