Hi.
I'm new as administrator of this board. I don't know where you old admin went, but
it's just you and me now, and I thought I'd introduce myself and let you know a
few things.
You may already know that this board is gatewayed to the Castleman mailing list. I
don't know if that was always the case, but it is now. If you'd like to join that
list, just send a new message to castleman-request(a)rootsweb.com and put just the word
subscribe in the subject line. That will do it for you.
Also, there are a few "rules" that I'm supposed to tell you about.
Sorry..... :o)
The first one is pretty important. When you type up your message, either new or reply,
please put the surnames that are IN your message in the surname box. Not all those you are
researching, just those you're talking about in your current post. And, please
separate them with a comma... not a / , not a - , or a * , or anything else. This is for
the convenience of those who are searching the archives, which are referenced by surname.
The classification box is pretty easy. Query covers most everything. But, if you have
something specific like a will, or an obituary, please be sure to mark the right
classification.
The rest are the common ones. Don't flame anyone (please don't respond on the list
if someone flames you, just let it drop),( if you don't know what "flame"
is, contact me), don't send spam, make sure your messages are on topic.... the usual
board stuff. So far, I haven't found many problems on this score, this board is pretty
good at this stuff, but I did want to mention it.
As for anything else, if you need to reach me for any reason, my address is
carlette(a)mail.com, and if you lose that one, it's also there if you click on links and
announcements.
Thanks,
Carlette
