Note:   Sorry about the problems with the digest!  I found errors in the 
list's log file and have taken steps to remedy them.
	AOL subscribers: the digest is sent out as one large message 
(no attachments) but apparently is turned into a file you must download 
on your end by AOL.  I suggest you complain to AOL (loudly!), or use an 
ISP that doesn't modify emails.  See http://thelist.internet.com/ or 
http://www.thedirectory.org/

Hi, Folks, 

My apologies to those of you on the digest.  I seem to have modified
permissions on some of the files incorrectly and broken it.  I have since
changed them and hopefully things are back to normal.  I will send this
message, then run a program to force the digest out, even though it's
tiny.  I'll be watching list processing until the next digest is sent out. 
(AOL subscribers, this is not related to how your email is handled once it
reaches AOL's message servers.)

Again, I'm sorry for the problems!

Hi Cuzins,
   Exciting news from Bedford County!  The following is part of an email

I received from our Cuzin Richard Burnett in Bedford, Virginia.
   If you don't know how Williamson Burnett fits into our family tree,
please email me.  I'm more than happy to send you the information.
   If anyone has thoughts on attending PLEASE let me know.  I'll get you

any/all information you need on motels, etc.  Sounds like a perfect time

for us Burnett researchers to have ourselves a reunion of sorts.  Lots
of Burnett cuzins in this area and I think I can easily convince one of
them to take us to all the grave sites, etc.  *Grin*  Let me know what
yall think.

Hearing of  Williamson BURNETT reminded me of his brother, Thomas Radford
BURNETT, who moved to Smith Co TN with their father, James R. BURNETT around
1812-1813. Does anyone have descendants for Thomas Radford BURNETT?
