I was surprised to see Eric turn up after all these years.
I lost contact after getting information concerning Arthur Augustus ABBOTT.
Unfortunately I had the wrong generation and Arthur Augustus was born in 1854,
not 1828. The Arthur born in 1828 (Swallowfield, BERKS) was just plain Arthur.
Eric, it appears your info on ABBOTT's has grown since I last contacted you in
1996.
Could you see what info you have on this Arthur, like siblings, etc.

I was born Adrienne Wynnelle ABBOTT in 1938, Lubbock Texas to Elizabeth and
Chalma Durwood ABBOTT.  I spent all of my summers in Lubbock with my father,
but lived in Southern California until I was 14 years old.  We moved to the

Oregon where I met my husband Bobby Gene Turner.  We married 5 April 1954 and
will celebrate our 45th anniversary this year.  We are parents of 6 children
and have 9 grandchildren.
We now live in Walsenburg, Colorado where I am a Real Estate Broker and my
husband and sons have Triple T Contractors, a stucco & concrete business.
Our two daughters still live in the Northwest in the Portland Oregon area.
My father Chalma lived with us from 1972 until his death Dec. 23, 1995.  He is
buried in Lubbock in the ABBOTT family plot.  I will post his genealogy this
evening when I have more time.  It is a line that I definitely am having
trouble with and hopefully this list will be of some help.  We are a southern

Thank You for the welcome and I hope I can contribute to the list.

I have forwarded this on to our ABBOTT onelist hope you do not mind

Hello Sue,

Sorry I am unable to help you although I have over 42000 references to
ABBOTTs. They are all prior to 1900.

I found this in the VetAffairs Newspaper for the Veteran Community,
Feb/March 1999 newspaper.
It may be interesting to some!

Surfing the Internet
It is now possible to access the AWM's vast photo, film, art and sound
libraries, books and private records and databases through its award winning
web site.

http://www.awm.gov.au

gives access to more than 180,000 photographs, 2500 artworks, 7000 private
records, 60,000 books, 200 sound recordings and details of 2000 films - all
part of the memorial's vast collections.
Also accessible is the Roll of Honour - the names of more than 102,000
Australians who died as a result of war.
- A DATABASE covering a wide range of sources on the relationship between
Japan and Australia between 1901 and 1957 has been developed with funding
from the Japanese government. This database is available via the web site.
The Australia-Japan Research Project is designed to encourage collaborative
work and exchange of ideas on the war period.

Dear Onelist listener:

You should know that readers of the group would see any post to your
Onelist.

At present we only have a few member and growing slowly.  We have only been
going about 6 weeks now.

The primary focus is to offer suggestions in utilizing this forum to your
advantage. We impose no rules of behavior nor methodology; we simply hope to
pass along courses of action, which have proven most successful in the past.
Think of this as a "tip" list for you to achieve a better response as the
list grows.

The organizers and volunteers who work on this and other projects on behalf
of our families in genealogy do this for the sheer fun of it. There is never
a charge.  All anybody asks is that you return any favors you receive to
someone else. There are always open slots for others who wish to contribute
something to the whole.

It is important to know that many of our readers simply scan the headers or
subject lines in digest or newsgroup header listings for articles of
interest.  Therefore, it is to your advantage to create a meaningful subject
line for your post.  When you ask about a family name, always provide as
much information as you can, E.g. names locations, time frames, etc.  A lot
of information will fit on the subject line to "catch the eye"; then, in the
body of your post, tell what you know in more detail and explain just what
you want to know, where you have looked and failed, etc.

Feel free to express yourself.

  If you have questions concerning the information in the FAQ, you may
contact us via email at the address below.  We will make every effort to
assist you but please remember that we, like you, are amateur genealogists
still learning every day.

While we can not help you with specific genealogical research. The
discussion lists exist for that purpose.

We wish you success with your family research and hope you enjoy your
participation in this group.

Your Help Team

Dear Members,

Found this on the net.
There is another genealogy volunteer list on the web. I am not sure how
long it has been running, but at least over two years.

http://posom.com/hl/

will take you to the page where you can choose which country to check
volunteers for research within that country. It is a great site.

Dear Jack,

You should know that any post to Onelist abbott@onelist.com
will be seen by readers of the group.

At present we only have a few member and growing slowly.  We have only been
going about 4 weeks now.

The primary focus is to offer suggestions in utilizing this forum to your
advantage. We impose no rules of behavior nor methodology; we simply hope to
pass along courses of action which have proven most successful in the past.
Think of this as a "tip" list for you to achieve a better response as the
list grows.
The organizers and volunteers who work on this and other projects on behalf
of ABBOTT genealogy do this for the
sheer fun of it. There is never a charge.  All anybody asks is that you
return any favors you receive to someone else. There are always open slots
for others who wish to contribute something to the whole.

It is important to know that many of our readers simply scan the headers or
subject lines in digest or newsgroup header listings for articles of
interest.  Therefore, it is to your advantage to create a meaningful subject
line for your post.  When you ask about a family name, always provide as
much information as you can: names, locations, time-frames, etc.  A lot of
information will fit on the subject line to "catch the eye"; then, in the
body of your post, tell what you know in more detail and explain just what
you want to know, where you have looked and failed, etc.

Feel free to express yourself.

  If you have questions concerning the information in the FAQ, you may
contact us via email at the address below.  We will make every effort to
assist you but please remember that we, like you, are amateur genealogists
still learning every day.

While we can not help you with specific genealogical research. The
discussion lists exist for that purpose.

I am working on the ABBOTT family now, I still have a few detail to check
out before I post it.

I will also do some advertising on different news groups promoting the
ABBOTT Onelist.

We wish you success with your family research and hope you enjoy your
participation in this group.

Your Help Team

year-month-day format.
All dates, Gregorian or Julian, use New Year on Jan. 1.

Hi Researchers:

Wanted to pass on this news article about LDS Family History Centers:

The Family History Department of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints is working to make genealogical files accessible from a family
history Web site.  Elaine Hasleton, a public affairs representative from the
Family History Center in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, said the Web
site is in its developmental stages.

The project is underway, however Hasleton said no set completion date has
been given.

The ancestral files of the LDS Church will most likely be accessible from
the site, said Craig Foster, a spokesman for the family history center's
public affairs projects.  Foster said the details of what other files and
information will be accessible from the site is not final.
'We are all excited about the future for family history,' said Jana
Darrington, 21, a senior from Mesa, Ariz., majoring in family history.
'Making a Web site for family history seems like a logical thing for the
LDS Church to do ... It would be a dream to be able to work out of my home.
I can work for as long as I want, whenever I want.'


-- Lynda Cameron, Provo, regular HBLL Family History Center patron
As the department assistant for the Harold B. Lee Library's family
history department, Darrington said many people have asked about the
possibility of family history files going online.
'This will make things much more available for the patrons and make
genealogy work widely known,' she said.  Darrington expects the number of
people going to family history centers to naturally decline once the files
become available from home.  'But I'm sure the elderly who don't feel
comfortable using the Internet will still make use of the facilities,'
Darrington said.  Lynda Cameron of Provo visits the HBLL Family History
Center at least once a week, sometimes more.
'Making a Web site for family history seems like a logical thing for the
LDS Church to do,' Cameron said.
Cameron is originally from Australia, where her father, Keith Williams,
still resides. She said they are both working on genealogy for their family
continents apart.

'This will really open information up for my father and make things more
available for everyone,' Cameron said. 'It would be a dream to be able to
work out of my home. I can work for as long as I want, whenever I want.'
Darrington also mentioned that this new project with family history will
introduce many non-members to the LDS Church.
'There are many people who work on family history that are not Mormon,'
she said.
Many of them already use LDS family history departments, and with the future
Web site many more will become familiar with the LDS Church, Darrington
said.    For more news go to:  http://newsnet.byu.edu
