To all members and visitors,
If you want to add something to the site please don't send me emails like the guy below did. I do want any relevant info you might have or pictures you may want to add but please understand that I do this site in my spare time and as a free service. I do not make a dime from it so I will not put up with anyone like Drew Jones, please feel free to read the series of emails below that he and I exchanged. Please excuse any expletives I have marked them out with %$@#@&
You may post your info here or send your pictures and info to randall_nix@yahoo.com

Drew,
Thanks but I think you may be forgetting Edward Nix abt 1689 VA - 1776 SC, I think William was
either a Granddad or Great Uncle of William's check out www.nixfamilytree.com/results.html
The DNA for William and Edward are very, very close.
It is always good to hear from a distant cousin and I am glad you liked the site. I build websites
for a living so I do the Nix site whenever I can get in a little time to work on it but if you
have any Nix pics or info you want to add please send it to me and I will try to add it asap.
Thanks and have a good day Cuz

I think I will have to go with the DNA results rather than what is listed on Ancestry.com. I never
said you were not related to William and I am sorry if I pissed you off that wasn't my intention.
Good luck with your research.

Drew,
I don't know what your problem is but it's your problem and not mine. I don't care what kind of
information you have, please just bother someone else with it.
Randall
PS By the way all of the Nix's I have had contact with were pretty cool people but then
again....they did have the last name of Nix....what was your last name again?
