Oh, Itsreenw, that makes me really sad to think that it could have been someone one WS to wreck your account. I'm embarrassed to say I don't even know what a people finder account is. Is that like one of the services you pay to do searches on various people? I thought they had a "per person" charge... are there some that only charge a monthly fee?
Yes, this was just $40. It doesn't have as much info as some of the other sites but it worked for me. Not a big deal. Just felt violated! And it wasn't necessarily someone from here. I work with adoptees too and I never worried about anyone using the acct like that. Ya live and learn.

I will be in the hospital for 3 days and should be back online in about 5 days. I'll be looking forward to seeing all the updates.

HoT, it was my people finder acct and after thinking about it, I think I know how my acct was accessed. On the Delia Cly thread, I copied and pasted some birth info for some of the key players in the case. If you click on any of those names, it took you to the page IN the database, not to the log on screen. All a person would have to do is save that page and click on one of the names in the post, then do a new search for whatever name they wanted to look up. I know none of the "regulars" would take advantage like that but we never know who is lurking.

That's the only thing I can think happened. It's my fault. I should've been more careful and I have to eat my hat so to speak because I was one of the people fussing about whether we should or should not be posting people's info here. I guess I learned a lesson (LOL). . .
Actually if it happened the way you describe then it was the fault of the owners of website. Even a noob website designer usually knows you have to protect access to more than just the login page. Otherwise even search engines can give out links to your socalled protected data pages. I actually accessed socalled protected data on a tanning salon Ezine's so called protected database by clicking on a link provided by an ordinary free search engine. I did not know the info was supposed to be protected until I clicked a link to the home page only to find that it had a log in page there which was supposed to be for people who had paid a subscription.

I didn't like the accusatory tone when I inquired about my account. I guess they believe I was sharing my user info with others. I will not use their service anymore no matter how they try to compensate me.

I have NetDetective to look up current info but I can't access birth & death info. Frustrating!!

Quick question Isabela, do you know if Rose was listed as one of the surviving children in Jesse's obituary?

Great question ladyhawk!

Does anyone know where Jesse was living when he died? His birth or death dates? I was going to search for a death cert., but the thread is way too long to go back and look.

Here you go gardenmom,

DEATH CERTIFICATE Deceased: COLE , JESSE JOSEPH Date of Death: 04/29/1991
Genesee County Clerk (Michigan)

Thanks, I couldn't find anything on ancestry.com. I don't know where else to look.
 
  • #555
Gardenmom, I'm not sure what good a Death Certificate would be, since we already know what his DOD was. If you do want to track down information on him, however, you can do it via the Genese County Records page. Sorry, I don't have that url right in front of me.

I was trying to find an obit on him, which is why I needed the death date and place. I didn't find anything though.
 
  • #557
Ohhhh, I thought you were looking for either a Death Certificate or a DOD... an obit makes sense. I wonder who would have written it... probably his 3rd wife, the one nobody even knew anything about. I think he was out of touch with all of his kids by that point.

Ladyhawk was wondering if Rose was listed as a surviving child. I kind of doubt it, but ya never know.
