Unsubscribe link at end of newsletter.
===================================== Dear !*FIRST_NAME*! Mid June newsletter ! I am pleased to tell you that 'Genealogy World' has several NEW ITEMS: All available in the MAIN MENU. BRICK WALL: several new entries ANGLO-BOER WAR: CAPE MOUNTED RIFLES NATAL MOLE: May Diary THE 1820 SETTLERS: Graaf Reinet Herald Grahamstown Journal 1849 Many familiar names such as Adendorff, Benadie, Marsh etc. to be found. VALIANT HARVEST: The Founding of the SA Sugar Industry 1848-1926 [Names from this Book published with the kind permission of The South African Sugar Association] Of particular interest in my case is the mention of Alexander Gifford, my gg-grandfather chairing a meeting. OF MARITIME INTEREST: 1871 BEETHOVEN and other shipping There is a photograph of the below: Eduard MOHR, shown with trophies acquired during his trip to the Victoria Falls in 1869. Since these were undoubtedly part of the 'baggage' of the Beethoven mentioned in the news report, being separated from them must have occasioned the explorer some anxiety. NATAL PASSENGER LISTS: 1860s - Priscilla - 2 Passenger Lists (cabin and steerage) 1871 - Beethoven Passenger List GLENWOOD HIGH SCHOOL: Roll of Honour - World War 1 Roll of Honour - World War 2 Four photographs of Memorials including the Delville Wood 1916 Memorial. 'Looks ups' are available if you find a name of interest to you. As you know 'Genealogy World' moved to a new Server. I hope no downtime was experienced when accessing 'Genealogy World' this week. As I mentioned before although every effort has been made to make sure that the move to the new Web Host is problem free, please let me know if you experience any difficulties when accessing any sections of 'Genealogy World'. You will also remember that Rosemary Dixon-Smith informed you of the following: The Times Digital Archive is still freely available, the link is: http://infotrac.galegroup.com/itw/infomark/111/1/1/purl=rc6_TTDA?sw_aep=we As many of you wrote to inform me that you had experienced difficulty accessing the above Site, Rosemary has sent the following instruction. Copy and paste this entire URL as given below into their browser: http://infotrac.galegroup.com/galenet/webdemo?http_rc=400&class=session&sev= temp&type=session&cause=http%3A%2F%2Finfotrac.galegroup.com%2Fitw%2Finfomark %2F0%2F1%2F1%2Fpurl%3Drc6_TTDA%3Fsw_aep%3Dwebdemo&cont=&msg=Current+Session+ Expired&sw_aep=webdemo&sserv=no or use the password which is "test". If you are wondering why I am using Plain Text in this Newsletter it is because so many more of you wrote to me - than usual - (after I had used Plain Text in the last Newsletter) that I would appreciate some feedback from some of you - whether you would prefer Plain Text! I know one or two of you have mentioned to me that you find it tiresome when reading the Newsletter off-line having the 'Connect' Box pop up umpteen times. Let me know what you prefer?!
Kind Regards, Delyse Brown.
