No, Ron, at one time I had three, one by the server ...but the Geeks told me to get rid of them, as the cable company is in charge of anything going through our server lines. It's not necessary to have any other server, one by the computer manufactuer, one by our email server...and I understand we pay Verizon an small monthly fee included to have them service our security need everyday automatically as an customer.  No this "virus" is supposedly in my line from my hubby's "PC" downstairs...I beleive its basically an hacking into our line for some reason. Could be an number or reasons behind it. Several people we know have computer businesses...might want to make some money off us...or...someone doesn't want me to say anything they can't control for the most part. They have kicked me off my genealogy site years ago. It is someone that doesnt' want me "creditable"..... or having an opinion they can't control.  I would assume because they are inadequate to begin with?

yes, in an way Ron...because the computer was mine to begin with...as with everything he gives me at "Chirstmas"...it never "works"....but putting that aside....he took over this PC when I bought the Lap Top. He put something called "Blue Regestry" on it...which I don't have, though it comes up on my computer....when I log onto the computer I generally have to start by closing down 6 blank windows. He took out an yahoo email account years ago, he uses it...but the comptuer is so slow it takes him about half an hour just to log in it. The scan this blue regestry gives him I've read...it says the computer down there has 122 errors on it...22 different "changes" as to computer applications. The Geeks told me the easiest way to stop it all was simply by an new computer modem and see if that doesn't eleminate all the troubles....provided they haven't attacked and entered my Lap Top from his computer prior. By not beign able to access an contiual email account...I can't use last year's "nook" either, as you are required to access an account from an computer. I can not enter any type of contest to win anything that requires an email addy to enter. Real discrimnatory for folks that have NO computer at all...there are numerous coupons and store discount I'll never be able to have either as long as I have no e-mail account. It is virtually impossible to talk to an email representatve on the phone.The "help" on line they gives makes you go into circles "no where" in solving anything either. Your only allowed to change or take out an new email account three times per year. One time I finally got in there to find out that they had blocked me...I changed the password, got in and the next night the new password was blocked.they could stop this if they made an separate box that uses an security key to access email accounts...it would stop Identity theft at the same time...something simliar to retail clerks registering thier ID numbers on an cash register before being able to use it.  It's not that hard an any manager using his card can over ride the clerks if there's an problem with the clerks abilty to access the register for operation....keys are an dime an dozen these days as is...no problem on that one...except it keeps little fingers off the keys being punched.  So you could say there's an individual clerks security card to swipe with an key in the register and an "Master" card held separaretly for emergencies...that overrides anything the computer has or doesn't have on it. The master card is simliar to what the Geeks use to get into the computer when it's been hacked by another person...or has an wrong application in it. Yes...both computers are having problems because they told me one server means they are hooked to the same internet line.

Wow, you really do have problems over there Shirley!

You write>>>as with everything he gives me at 'Christmas'...it never 'works'. So funny Shirley, but not, if you understand me?

I can't even begin to make suggestions to help you, but suffice to say half an hour just to log in? Crikey, the PC would be on the lawn via the window in less than five minutes if that happened here!

So many restrictions, and problems you have there. It's a wonder you manage to make contact with POE for as long as you do, but whatever happens don't stop trying because your posts make interesting reading, even if they are often shrouded in trauma for you.

Take care Shirley, we love you mate.

Shirley there is no way I would have the patience with all your computer problems, it would have driven me absolutely crazy.

Hi everyone!  Hope you have all had a wonderful day.  We have had thunderstorms all afternoon from about 12 til 7.  Hopefully it has gone away now, so I am taking advantage of the lull to clock in to POE. Smile

Hum, I got an very stuble message this morning....I was watching an house selling episode(some people flying an Canadian Flag of all things also.....one where they basically took an blue painted house and  it painted gray for the most part... with some white rooms to sell it. I got an call from an area up north of me belongs to my family historian "back up"....with an stuble " quiet" message...."get rid of them"..it came from their division of marketing...now these people design large skyscrapers all over the world....could probably rival your Queen dollar per dollar over there in England and then some....also are into politics since I've lasst seen them.  The only blue house I know of that was painted Gray was Joe and Diana Sidebottom's house when we first moved into this housing project. They moved up to Corbett...she's the one had the daughter Julie whose car part went out and crossed the I-5 freeway and went under an 18 wheeler gasoline truck...it drug them into and explosion and of course their death. Have never heard of the family since then in these parts. Joe was not my favorite at times. His smoking I notice had burn holes up the stairway of his house in his lack attitude of life beyond himself. Way they went about it...bet this was phone call that can't be traced....as to who called exactly also. Despite this these people are some of the nicest people you ever meant...but I can imagine someone has them ticked off....and they are people whom protect those treat them decent..and are good. As of last night...I picked up an small google icon kind of astrick...just under the word "google"in my task bar that has no way of being removed that I can tell of....do any of you people have this?  It is placed under and between the word google (2) in the task bar and is yellow in color and very tiny.

Ron, my problems come from people like "Joe"...trying to control me. He is the one that told me I couldn't have any "garage sales" in the neighborhood ...if I did.... he'd call city hall on me for running an business without an liscence..... EVERYONE has garage sales.  I also one time watched him messing around with thier electric meter outside of their house and it's been many years ago..but I had an cable guy there one time with me watching him. He has the techonolgy to cheat....he has his own on road computer business also...he is Diana Sidebottoms' second husband. I use to watch him take an belt to Julie when she lived there because she was "discplined" enough to suit him and not an "leader" type amoung her peers. What is there about guys named "Joe" that make them so cruel in my estimation. They remind me of Darth Vadar in Star wars. Joe makes number three that runs an computer company that I am aware of....could of affected me in the past. That is why I can't get this problem straighted out...Bill Gates in years past put his official worldwide hackers on the trail of my computer.....they could trace them from China to Texas, to Seattle ...through me... and then on to Los Angelas..but could never find an "core" person to deal with either. They could never get them to let loose of my computer either. I do know they say that where my hubby's family geneaology come from in Polk, Co., Mo. has our country's top computer hacker living there that's been in the past convicted and sent ot prison at one time. Robert Miles and I use to go to the area to pick up records on his parents and grandparents....Robert is an professional historian also....Whomever took my e-mail...made it impossible to get ahold of even him or the data we had between us.  I sen tna back up copy to my sister in-law...I have no idea if she haas it yet or not. Her aunt put the family in the Latter Day Saints Church down in Utah...but she gave each one of us kids an slip of paper when with their family names on it after my son was born. I believe her grandmother was the famous Native American Captive...or of her kids perhaps....Mary Ingels..some called them English also....the Ingles family are in the data I have of legacy of the Lawson castle over there...I'd have to look that information up again...but they have done "full circle" now.  Jerry's aunt lived in Oklahoma and looks very Native American....if not "German" perhaps. People have tried to tell me that there is part negro in their blood and I am old enough to know that the colored people coould always been told in the older generation by their hands...which had an white cast to them...and of course the curly black hair. His mother never had either of them. Sh di dthough have the features of the Cherokee....ruddish colored skin...and tall, black hair and eyes...his dad was an fair blonde, blue eyed shorter then his mother person...very "Scot-Irish" looking. If we would of had DNA tests back then we could of found out if they are carrying the "jewish" roots of the Sapponi tribe. Composed  of 16 tribes along the east coast they were the remanents of  the middle east. My guess is why I find an Rev. Samuel Macadow.Macaddo......that may fo been the Templar knight Grand master in Europe's lineage named Anjou...in Tenneessee. The Reverand's daughter "Sarah" married John Larkins. I think the son of my William Larkin earlier. They went to Kentucky in the vacinity of where later on the Allen-Bird family on the wagon train out her to Oregon in 1847 resided....one side of this family had lived with my William E. Larkins in Illinois earlier. They are connected to Pres. George Washington also....as well as the Lawson also. It may be that his borther "James"  family married into the William Lawson line also..also siad to be what the family has termed as "The Scottish Rebel" from his miltary service...at Montrose. I am being told that among this group is the possible "immortailty" of the "holy family" of Jesus...as well as those whom portected the old "high Priest's" family of that time. We know the names of the biblical apostles...but not so on the high preist's...nor the "fisher Kings"...immortals also.Or at least if you have them...tell me...I've found two  in some of the oldest texts on planet earth...maybe three... with Quezlcoatyl in Mexico. They are indeed propected these days and have the power to be doing otheriwse for us human beings. It may be th elong time prophecy of the "Pope" and his "end days" where it says that there would "savages"  rampant in the church after it's downfall.. that it would be true following John Lawson over here...but not savages necessarily as it would be the Templar knights and these Native Americans with them now. It most assuredly affects our family...if as said "Masoic Lodge" members in records since late 1700's. I do beleive why the first "frontier" area the Catholic church went to was Nelson Co., Ky...where our John Lawson lived...the church probably also knew they were of the "Plangnent" family lines of England. He probably also knew that the "Masonic Lodge" wouldl be there also around them "secretly"...if even secretly....my Racheal Reed (Read)family has much to do in all this also. Names have been changed to re-route other people.... at an surface level...that much I know.  I believe John Lawson's wife "sukey"  (susan)was either an Hardwick-Lawson cousin, whom owned the "Red house" estate on the other side of King's MOuntain in Noirth Carolina then..it later went to the Calhoun family as Govenor of South Carolina...and John Lawson's secodn wife Eleanor an Rogers..she remairred the "Lakins" after John.family supposedly. Only marriage I can substanuate in records is John and Sukey. She looks like she's buying goods to give to an tribe at an fort in Chalkey's court records....traders for land perhaps for Col. Geo. Washignton....Ohio Land Company. I can not trace back far enough to get to the truth on James Lackey...as to being an  native captive grandson of Col. James Martin...an Delaware chief's son, or belonging to the Larkins family originally. But I do beleive that this family tale of an bible saving the life of William E. Larkins in the war of 1812...(I've never seen this bible to date, they suposedly have it back east...Roberta McGloughlin)...is just the opposite of what happened to the peaceful chief of the Cherokee called "Hanging Maw"..his wife and him raised Lackey or adopted him to raise if he was Native American. Geo. Washington had Col. William Blountmeet in an treaty with them and others to dissolve the state of Franklin...later to be called Tenneesee....when an renagade came running through the crowd shooting....an bullet killed the Chief's wife...whom it may been "Lackey's" family..or what was left of it "originally"...teh ladies in the family told me that I would know when I found William E. Larkins...to search my heart...it woould not betray me...when I read this...afterward for some reason...I cried.  Most the time this information doesn't affect me this way...I'm to busy to see what the latest "lie" is that's been put out there from contolling. If I am an reincarnation of William E. Larkins...soulwise...I would of known I was reading probably of an woman that raised me also. Lackey could of had an number of wives. I know of Margaret Anglin connected to him...and what may be him the grandson of Col. James Martin...and I know of the Krider/Galliger captive espisode of  the DAR James Larkins...thsi James may be one of the son's and brother of John Larkins m. Sarah McAdoo....I am sure this family knew older George Lawson also. They were in the same line of business together. I am thinking that this William Laarkin is one I picked up once in records back east. He apparently got into bible production. Was an "messenger" for George Washington from Philadelphia during the Rev. War...while George Lawson had been an court clerk. I do not know if they were kin also...things have always pointed that way. As to the Rogers family...they married into the Lawsons...Geo. Rogers left Lawson's an legacy by the name included as "Bartlette". Rogers were an maternal line of the "Planegent" Lawson family in Scotland.George Washington  ancestory was the one whom place " Robert Bruce" in control of Scotland around this time. Scotland is the last "ritual" place of the Templar Knights...there they become one in "spirit" with God. So it makes sense to me...that theymay of had something to do with "James Keith" family....whom was sent from New Jersey...by the Rev. Samuel Davis...founder of Princeton College in New Jersey to get his offical papers as an Reverand...when he returned he did an short stint of service at Bruton Parish Church before going to to our Marjorie Popes family area in

Virginia..which was where Partick Henry also came from...and the scottish rebel William Lawson's inlaws came from by the name of Henry Wood. These lines are very long ones of each name also and for th emost part very distinguished ones...Keith family...an brother had an James Keith also...who in Kegleys is said he married Peggy Huff....in 1812...William E. Larkins went to Somerset County, Pa to enter the war in Capt Hoff's regiment...said that he and John Davis..were not part of the area as residents then...Huff's were later the Masonic Lodge member that arranged and funeral for George Washington. At that time one of Geo. Washington's Reverand's was named Thomas Davis. From the Read family...my mother maternal line is Sarah Ann Davis.  She has already been given an "legacy" that I dispute... that is different...and for the most part doesn't fit in with all these people either. I beleive the Samuel Davis taken by the Indians along with an Handley/Hailey man and for an while interpreter of the Cherokee in their treaties was an younger son of Elizabeth ( Keith)  Berry ...whom  later married Joshua Davis, the son of Rev. Samuel Davis m. Ann Boyd...whom was with Col. William Blount to find her son...and she later married James G. Glenn North Carolina to Kentucky eventually to in records of William E. Larkins in Illinois. Ibeleive after our Sarah Ann Davis died and Jeremiah Larkins remarried Katurah Haily and she says her ancestory came from Tenneesee...  I feel that she was most likley an child of Samuel Handley/Hailey. I at first thought her name was an redition of "Kentucky"...its not...it's an very old bible personality...one that would take knowing you bible to know the name. Sameul Davis I ran down in Ky records saying he was born iin Illinois. That does compare with an map...not data written...to an early homestead like "Fort" in the area I picked up in person from their records back there..not mentioned these days...mostly because of Rachel Reed Larkisn uncle as Col. John Strawn descendent has taken over the family records in the area...I got an chance to meet her...I doubt it if she's alive now as it's been some years ago...but Florence Larkins sent me an original letter she wanted me to keep...and it's an very old tale of the family going there in the early days when all this family history for the Larkins  research work began. She did this probably so none of the other family could change records I think now. All these people were at oen time in Bortourte Co., Va which was at one time Augusta Co., Va. Most of them started out for an brief time in Arbermale (Sp)county, Virginia also by ship...before heading off to other regions. But the thing remains....the control fo the church over that of the masonic lodge. It is no secret that the state of "Franklin" was probably named after  Benjaomin FRanklin...Quaker...as was also our "Reed/Read" family....Debrah Read m. Benjamin Franklin. Their daughter married an "Blanchet" family later went into "Black"...but the church knowing the roots of John Lawson I think...not wanting him to carry on the Masonic Lodge....brought an... Father Blanchett"....and .FrenchCanadian into the Pacific Northwest to "baptist" and Indian Chief's son....well, whom...we have an REbbecca Jones Larkins...that says that an Indian upon just having an son born named him after William E. Larkins...as "Lackey" he is in the Reservation formation of the Warm Springs Tribes documents. To late...his son in-law's "Graham family" married Salome Larkins wasan methodist minister and "Masonic Lodge" family. John's family left quickly along with an lot of relatives to out here in Oregon also...and I have an rememant of them also went to Austrailia. i have been talking for years now to an lady whose from our area of Kentucky as to her William Lawson...she can't find out where he went to....maybe it was Austrailia. I still have an few details on that one also to finish up. I do believe people ant me to change my story to accompdate them the way they want...and it simply can't be done without one of these families missing in their area they were known to been. I think thatSomerset Co., Pa has now an Thomas W. Larkins ...the Reverandor one of the three "Bishops" of methodism as our legacy....and they sent me papers on Col. James Larkins family of what was known. I have hsi wife as both Elizabeth Ellis and her as an Martin. One of these "bisphops"...Rev. Shaw m. an Elizabeth Davis...I think they are calling the descendent of Pochanatas. The "new" legacy leaves room for an Sarah in it also thse days. It will I think because it also contains the "Cabell" family of one of William E.. Larkins son's...as in-laws. Dr. William Cabell was quite famous in this area....and includes the line I mentioned beforehand of Davis. Ialso see that Sapponi Towne insert and John Davis...said to be an overseer of the slaves...an mean one....hum....my records shows he ran an mill...but nothing else have I found concerning him...at least in the past. If I can believe the various other people traveling with them, I doubt our family was ever into "slaves" as much as Scouts and interpreter guides...and few of them were at an place long enough to have much more for help. Quakers...the religious faith of the Read/Franklin's did not enspouse it to my knowledge. I have an exceptional amount of Reverand's in the entire group also. There is no doubt in my mind that their was an very powerful prescence of protection by the Indians on William E. Larkins 1847 wagon train trip to Oregon. Maybe besides "God spirit" in Tenneesee he carried with him their spirit to remain free also? I do have "Tories" in both the Lawson lines and the Read line...during the Rev. War era also. I go for now.

That last post was by me to help others fit in their data also...we have several people in here I have notes on as per se marhorie Pope perhaps and James "Rogers" family.  I take my basic information from things I picked up on the trip some 34 years ago across country in person, documetns and historical societies, talking ot people first hand....not from the computer files of today..(.unless the information matches)....letters from others also.

I don't know if my computer would load an picture these days Ron, maybe...we took an cell phone of our front yard and sent it off as kind of an postcard greeting..but have not heard from the person it was sent to...that they received it.

Yes, its not funny to never have an Chirstmas gift you can use...it's into about year four now. I barely got all the components to the PC hubby uses...and someone stopped me using it...got the lap top though...it's being worked over...but I can almost use it..no email though most the time....the "Nook" of last year...can't use it...it requires email registery, can't hold or access my password....and my camera....no one takes me any place to take an picture of something....let alone teach me how to load it to send off here. I've had soem help in the past...but many times...not enough. Most the time I just go out an buy what I need... and call it at that....keeping within budgeet naturally..if I have any money left from the "greedy ones" around me at times. I know where that comes from also...Capt Peter Hogg. He owned everything I guess in Virginia. I have records that he wasn't like by George Washington...and someone does that to me following around anything I might say inancestory. It is I think...becoming of "God" to give people back what they give out...until they change their ways....example of that might be the old Societ Union and it's agressiveness was given back to them by the way of Cherbynol perhaps...so they could understand what annilation is really all about...the hard way....and not think of killing everyone  quite so quickly.
