[lace-chat] RE: lace-chat Genealogy Questions
Don't know if I'm doing this correctly or not, but here goes. I've been reading the questions regarding genealogy, a hobby I have a great passion for. While I don't have the answers to the specific questions being asked here, I do have a suggestion for two free websites that might help you all. This first is www:rootsweb.com. This site has loads of information, AND they have a very large mailing list section that covers most anything you could be looking for, and if there isn't a specific list that covers your list there is a general list. The folks there are very helpful and will answer all questions if possible. The second site is www.cyndislist.com. This is a list of genealogical links on the web. It lists over 250,000 sites, all catagorized and cross referenced. If you can't find a link on this site, it probably doesn't exist. Anyway, thought this information might help you. As I said, I can't answer the specific questions you all have, but if you have any questions, let me know...I do have lots of sites I can search (I do have access to Ancestry.com so if something tells you to search for something there (it's a pay site), let me know and I'll do a little digging for you.

Dear Kathi, Look at: www.minnlacesociety.org www.internationaloldlacers.org (Large American Lace Guild, which has 28 members who live in Minnesota). You should be able to find lacemakers demonstrating at state and local fairs, street fairs, historic house museums. You may be able to get references from owners at independently-owned quilt or yarn shops. And, your state may have a state fiber arts organization, with state or national endowment for the arts funding. Ask at any museum how to find the state arts commission to help you find fiber artists. Also, members of the Embroiderers' Guild of America and American Needlepoint Guild should be able to point you in the correct direction -- to people who make lace, teach lace, and can provide information about where to buy supplies. Needlelace instruction is offered by these organizations, and the teachers of needlelaces will know of bobbin lacemakers.

[lace] Hello
I just wanted to say hi... I was introduced to bobbin lace making by my husband's aunt, who lives in England. She showed me how to do it, but unfortunately where I live don't seem to have much of a support base. I am still fascinated with bobbin lace making though, so have really been enjoying the posts to this list as well as the video links...thanks so much. It is amazing how much work bobbin lace making involves. I have recently learned to tat, and that is working well for me. I've been really practicing that, and my ambition is to some day tat a table cloth (I have a long way to go before that though). Anyway, I just wanted to say Hi, and thank you for letting me listen in on your conversations.

Hi Kathy, Welcome from lurkdom. We are all anxious to know, and it is one
of the rules that you sign your name with an identifying residence i.e.
at least country. Since some countries are so large, if we know where you
live, we may know of someone who will contact you re lacemaking.
Happy Lacemaking
