Hello, everyone,
I just read Bernnie's message:

I think tihs is a good idea, if it wouldn't cause some kind of computoer
logjam.
My question is whether the surnames we submit to this list
should be limited to just the ones we know were Quakers
(which in our case would be a very few),
or whether all the surnames we are researching should be submitted?

Thanks for considering and replying to this question.
