MARCH 2014 NEWS UPDATE

Greetings!

Are you tired of Winter?  So am I...   I am so looking forward to packing up my laptop and my wonderful boombox that my son gave me (it has a connection for my iphone and a disc player, nice!) and sitting at a picnic table on the beach and working on this website.  I did it last year a couple of times and it was so nice to be out in the fresh air.  The lake is only 1/2 mile from my house.  :-)
     February seemed like I didn't do much to the website but I have been working on other areas at U. S. Genealogy Express, that is other States and even some things for England.  Yes ... I am all over the place.  I am hoping it helps people that need to search in those other places.  I have most of the biographical indexes for Ohio and need to create them for the other states, etc.
     As this is a big project for mostly just one person, it does take time to get the information online.   I try my best to do it though as it is my passion.
     There may be a few days that I may not be working on the site as I have some minor maintenance that needs to be done on my body. :-)   Thank you to anyone that wishes to send prayers for my complete and speedy recovery.

     Other than that, I do need those who have send lookup requests to me that have not been answered yet, to re-send them as the email does get backed up in that department and sometimes it is just hard to catch of while still trying to put updates online.  I am not ignoring anyone and so again, please re-send the requests.

     With that... I will get back to doing what I do best, typing my fingers to the bone. :-)

If you would like to contribute to keep this website going, you can use Pay Pal below or send it by snail mail.  If you prefer snail mail, you can contact me for my address to send it to.

PS.....

I'm working on year #6 now and I hope I can give some type of help to someone that is at their 'brick wall' by keeping this website relatively simple to navigate.
Again...
With no muss, no fuss and just getting the information 'out there' in cyberspace for all you good people so that you might find leads in finding your 'roots'.
I have corresponded with some very nice people and along the way found things for my own family tree.
I want to send out a BIG THANKS to all of you who make it worth it by sending nice emails to me and occasional contributions.
For those of you that don't, I am just pleased that I can help you all as well.
I will continue to get the data 'out there' for you as it is my passion to help.
And besides that, I like to type. :-)
I am hoping to bring more and more NEW data as time goes on.
Keep checking back often.
Have a wonderful month,

Sincerely,
Sharon Wick

Please check the Calendar of Updates.
You can click the links at the top of that page to go to prior years' updates.
I have been trying to add data that people have been searching for.

Be sure and Don't be afraid to ask me to transcribe biographies of people listed on all the county and state pages.  That's what I do and that helps me get motivated on each county site.
It also makes me curious about what else I can find on the requested names.
ALSO... Do NOT be afraid to ask me again if I don't get to your request as I have lots to do and sometimes I overlook things.   :-)

As usual....
My website will ALWAYS be free as long as I can keep it online.
I will assist in research as long as it is within my means.  But not if it will cost me money.
That is only fair as I don't charge for this website.
I am still trying to get more biographical indexes

Please be patient.

If I haven't answered your queries, it is because that is not the only way people can contact me.
I answer lots of queries as time allows.
I will eventually get back to those who ask questions.

UPDATE ON KITTY....

It is now March, 2014 and Kitty is STILL hanging in there...   Her appetite goes up and down.  I think it is because she hurts.  I really don't know for sure as she quiets down when I feed her.
She jumps up on her stool next to my computer chair and she will meow a bunch and then after a while she will start pawing me over and over trying to get me to feed her.  I don't want to over feed her so I make her wait a while and then I will finally get up and feed her.
I keep those Kitty snacks handy to give her in between feedings.
I have gotten some vitamins for her and she is finally starting to bathe herself again.
Just a little at a time.
She is close to 15 years old now.
My sweet cat has Lymphoma.
She is taking steroids to prolong her good health for a little longer.
Winter is here so Kitty isn't going outside at all.  She mostly stays curled up in my recliner while I am typing.
For all you cat lovers, I will keep you posted.

Hubby's dog, MAXX, STILL needs a little spiritual help also.
He has bad legs.
UPDATE ON MAXX.....
Maxx is Maxx... Poor Maxx..
Although Maxx plays outside during the winter,
Maxx has been sleeping in the cold garage at night.
He can't come in the house now as his bladder is too week and he doesn't have a lot of control with his bowels.   He has really bad hips as well.

He has been visiting my husband's son while my husband was away at work for several weeks and now my husband and his son have decided that MAXX likes it at the son's place better.  He gets to stay in a camper at night and it is much more comfortable.   I know my husband misses him dearly but he made the decision and his son and daughter have no problem with MAXX making his home with them.  They are more into the animal care than I am.
I told my husband that later if he wants to get another dog, that he needs me to go with him to help pick it out (his other son went last time).  I will make sure it is an older dog (Maxx was a puppy) and I will require that it has been trained well.  Then it can come into the house and keep my husband and me company.
I think that is a good plan, right?

I keep finding new material for OGE that I have been trying to get online.
Keep track of the UPDATES CALENDAR to see what I am doing.
It is the best source for updates.

AGAIN...... I am a little behind on my 'REQUESTS' EMAILS so don't be shy....
REMIND ME!   I am getting old. hahahahhahah

That is all I have to say right now but I will keep you updated.

Sharon Wick
