Sorry I couldn’t acknowledge your FACEBOOK request.Shortly before I received an email from them about your message, I tried to log in and got the message that “There was a suspicious login to your (my) account.”They led me into a routine to restore my account which ended with a requirement to identify some pictures that had been submitted to my account.
I’ve been a member of FACEBOOK for many years, and changed nothing nor authorized anyone else to access my account.I never paid much attention to the photos that came in.I’ve tried about five times to identify their pictures and I can’t identify enough to satisfy them.So my use and relation to FACEBOOK is as they say “Dead in the water!”
It looks like you’re getting some good help already with your project to join the DAR, but I’ll send you some names and dates which may help you along a little.
