If you would like to manage a GenConnect board for CARWILE, they became
available this month (separate ones for wills, pensions, bios, obits,
deeds, bible records, and queries). I requested the ones for our list, but
think it would be more beneficial for everyone if other cousins managed
them, rather than me. Please check these URLs, and if you would be willing
to manage one, please send me your first, second and third choice - they
will be assigned in the order I get replies.

The GenConect boards work best in tandem with the list, if I understand it
correctly - it certainly looks as if they would help us. When search
engines look for surnames, these boards will show up. Cousins not on the
list will also see our posts. Hopefully, they will join us for research
and working together on the list, but the boards should get more attention
from surfers. The wills, deeds, bios, etc. boards are for adding data so
that we will all have the opportunity to look at it online easily. The
person in charge of the board is sent a copy by e-mail of everything that
is entered, as it is entered. There is also an e-mail list for folks who
are managing the boards, and questions can be asked there if there is
something you do not understand.
