Welcome!

Hello,, Again, welcome! --John (talk) 02:29, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Greetings,. You had asked about finding the sources for the references and "also sees" I added to the Los Adaes article. My family has been collecting local publications about the Natchitoches area ever since my Dad was transferred to that area in the late 60's/70's. This gave us several years to become familiar with some of the local history -- which was particularly easy to get interested in since we lived across the street from Fort Jessup. In any case, several publications in our collective library referenced the de Mézières work. So I happened to do a Google search for it one day and found that it had been placed online via Google books. So I added it to the article. Then I noticed that although the article explained the Spanish Texas connection, it didn't have any links to the Spanish missions material, so I added those as an "also see" section. I think that also led me to the Bolton reference. In any case, as I mention at my user site, I have never found the definitive history of the Neutral Zone that I would like to see -- which I think is odd given the fascinating history of the area. So to get any sense of the history of the area, you almost have to piece it together from whatever reliable sources one can find. Cheers, JuniperisCommunis (talk) 12:35, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

, you mention that you are a graduate student. I have an friend in her late 80's who was born in north-central Louisiana and has had a truly fascinating life -- for example, she was the daughter of the overseer on the plantation where LSUS is now located and remembers playing at the old plantation building that is located on the campus. And that's only one aspect of her amazing around-the-world life. (She was married to a career military person.)  Although she is physically getting very frail, mentally she is still sharp as a tack. I think she could be a great oral-history candidate. Any suggestions as to a university contact who might be interested in interviewing her as part of an oral-history project?

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Holtzhammer. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Holtzhammer~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:22, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
