Give me a break! To the guy who said it was just like a Hamilton to ignore
copyright laws: GET A LIFE!
No genealogist in the world can say that he doesn't have boxes full of
copied pages, plat maps, histories...you name it. In some libraries the
staff copies the books for you! The question is, what do you do with it. If
you intend to include the pages in a written genealogy, that's one thing.
But I find it incredibly self righteous of the nimrod who would imply that
because we are Hamiltons, we ignore the laws. Find a new list if Hamiltons
are so distasteful to you, none of us want you here anyway!
