Hi Cousins I am so excited about our Dutton Group. I belong to a Broach group and we have had a lot of fun and have garnered some really neat information. We started with three and now have 30 permanents and a few drop ins. So this is really great that we have started with 15. We also had profile sheets, so we could keep up with who is who and if we needed to snail mail someone information too large to send via internet. We have a couple who actually send out BD and holiday cards. Most of us either forget or don't have time, but they enjoy it and we enjoy it. I have cut and pasted my profile sheet from there and changed the names to protect the innocent...grin.. nah just changed to my Dutton line and will send it if this first send works. The lady who heads up our Broach group does not work away from home and in addition to her research travels she keeps the group in tact. One of the group has a daughter at Berkley and she set up our server e-mail list and our Broach page. She works on it mostly in the summer when she is off. My Address Book would not let me copy and paste so I had to type in all the names. It would not accept all of the names under one title so I split it into two and put the second one under CC. Hope it works.. Thank you Joseph for taking on this task. It can become quite a challenge when the traffic gets heavy. Usually it is relatively quiet in the summer with everyone on vacation though. A suggestion. Go on and get a three ring binder and a floppy disk. When the info comes in print it off, put it in binder AND save it to your floppy disk that you have marked "Dutton." That way you will not clog up your files and you will have the information handy when you are sending something to a single individual. I did not do that at first and had papers scattered everywhere. I have papers scattered everywhere now for that matter, but my Broach file is in a notebook. My name is Judy Norwood Knight and I live in one of the hottest places in the world right now....South Carolina. The thermometer on my kitchen window (which is in the shade of the patio roof )read 102 degrees today at 3:00. I have been outside trying to water all of my plants, but it is a chore. The humidity is so high that in five minutes, I looked like I was watering myself, so I finally did just that, hose in the air and it felt so good.....smile. So glad to meet y'all and so glad to have another batch of newly found cousins. And thanks again Joseph. Love Cousin Judy
