Thanks Amanda, I was able to replace one dead link not sure about the William Coble Family Tree link. I will check on the weekend for a replacement ok.
Both the above link is showing as "Error 965: Link error 404 Not Found". Do you have an alternative link for it? Otherwise I'm sorry but it needs to be removed. If I don't hear back I'll go ahead and removed the bad link.
