Volunteer Information
Desoto Co FLGenWeb Project
The hoopla...
We encourage everyone to get involved with our
project. No contribution is considered to big or to small. This project
is solely produced on a volunteer basis. You retain the rights to any donations
made to this project and if at anytime you wish your information to be
removed we will do so. We cannot accept any copyrighted information from
such things like books, magazines or previously done surveys or transcriptions
of public records put into a book/list form because once this is done,
the list itself is protected under copyright laws. We must obtain written
permission from any copyright holder before placing their information on
this site. However this does not apply to any published works pre-1925
for which the publisher has not reapplied for a copyright.
How can I help...
We accept almost anything you have to offer as
long as it will help other researchers!
Such as photos, biographies (in your own
words), old news paper articles or announcements, scanned vital records,
public records ect. If you don't see a catagory that you feel fits with
what you have to offer, no problem.... We'll create one! All information
can be sent by email or regular mail. Please let us know if you have any
problems and we will work it out together. And of course, if you find a
mistake any where on this web site please take the time to let us know!

About us...
Phyllis Mathis Sunman Borden (my
mom) and Janine Sunman Rickner (her favorite...tee
hee) where both born and raised in Fort Myers, Lee Co, Florida.
We started researching our family tree together about 6 years ago. We've
traced the Mathis and Williams families from Virginia migrating through
North Carolina, Georgia and settling in Florida. We have strong ties in
Desoto County with the first family settlement in the Brownville area circa
1850. We also have direct linages with the McClenithan and Smith families
settling in Desoto County in the 1870s. We took over the Desoto Co FLGenWeb
Project in April 1998 and since then our hobby has expanded into something
we are both very proud of. With the donations and help from others, along
with own time and efforts, this web site has become every visitors project
and we thank you for helping us make it grow to a project we can all be
proud of!
