TSFA Election Time
by Liesa Robarge
Sackett Members,
It is time once again for the election of TSFA Members to the Association
Committee. This year we are looking at up to 5 vacancies on the TSFA
Committee, so we are looking for four people for the slate for the Class of
2014 and one person for the Class of 2012.
According to our Constitution, those wishing to run for a seat on the
Committee will submit their names to the Nominating Committee, along with a
short biography and statement of qualifications (not to exceed 250 words and
not mandatory). Names and biographies will be posted on the TSFA Website for
members to review.
The Nominating Committee will accept candidates until April 15, 2011, at
this email address: nominate(a)sackettfamily.info. At that time, names and
biographies will be posted on the TSFA Website for members to review.
Members may cast their secret votes from 16 April, 2011 until April 30,
2011, at an email address set up for that specific purpose.
Results of the voting will be announced in the first week of May, 2011.
Members will be elected to a seat on the Association Committee, and not to a
specific office. The Committee, once installed, will elect the following
officers among themselves, to serve in that capacity for one year:
President, Vice President, Secretary, and Registrar. Remaining Committee
Members will be designated as Members at Large.
Any organization depends on the participation of its members to remain
vibrant and growing. It is important to have new ideas and fresh approaches
brought into the mix. You are encouraged to stand for election as a member
of the TSFA Committee. This is an excellent way for you to help our
organization provide the services that you have found helpful in your
genealogical research.
Please do not reply to this email in volunteering to stand for election.
Instead, send your replies to the Nominating Committee email:
nominate(a)sackettfamily.info. This will prevent unnecessary traffic on our
TSFA list.
Thank you to the Nominating Committee

Re: [SACKETT] TSFA website updated
by Jim Sackett
Chris,
I notice that on my Father's TSFA page (Charles Arthur Sackett) I am shown
as a "Sackett Family Association descendant of Charles Arthur Sackett and
Priscilla A. Miller." Actually, I am the descendant of Charles Arthur
Sackett and Melva Lucille Pangborn. Just below that entry, I am correctly
included in Charles Arthur Sackett's Family 2, as one of Melva Lucille
Pangborn's children.
It's not that big a deal. Maybe there's a reason I am listed that way. I
just wanted to make sure that there were no errors.

Re: [SACKETT] Introducing new member Linda Curran
by Thurmon
Hello Joan,
I thought that Linda would have noticed her mistake and corrected it.
However, maybe she has the sme problem as me. I often see what I indended to
write, and don't see what I actually wrote. :-)
The children Linda listed were the children of Loyal Timothy Smith, son of
Harvy and Mariah: So the children were that grandchildren of Harvy and
Mariah.
I have the image of the 1860 census which shows STETTING SMITH, age 2 as a
female. However, the 1880 census shows him as a son:
1880 Census; 3rd Ward, Sacramento, Sacramento, California

Mary L. SMITH, Wife, M, Female, W, 64, MA, Keeping House, CT, N.S.

Hallo,
Could you clarify something for me are these children you have listed the
children of Harvey and Mariah as if this is the case then she would have
been over 60 when Harriet was born.
The 1860 census shows the following
Living 8th ward of Albany city county of Albany New York Post Office Albany
Mary Ann Mother born 1816 Mass.
Loyal born 1851 New York
Harriett born 1854 New York
Stelling (transcribed as Snelling) Born 1858 New York the only problem being
on the census this one is said to be female. No sign of her husband but it
does not state her to be a widow.
I will be only too happy to send you this direct but I can't attach to this
site, I am on the members list though. Hope this helps.
Regards Joan Leary Essex United Kingdom.

This is Samantha, Mary Lous daughter. I wanted to let you know that my mother passed away today. I know she would want you to know. She found out about a month ago that she had gotten her cancer back. She chose to try the kemo last friday. By Monday she had pnumonia. She struggled for the week, and finally today she passed in her sleep, comfortably at 1:55 pm. Please pass it on to all who you know would want to know. I am doing my best to let every one know, but its difficult as she knew so many people. Thank you.

This is the down side of starting a mailing list, oh so many years ago. We have to watch the initial subscribers pass out of our lives. Mary Lou was always very supportive and most generous with her time. The list will not be the same without Mary Lou.
