Hello everyone!
Hope all of you are enjoying a good summer and
getting out to do some research, walking cemeteries
and such things that we simply cannot do in the cold
of winter. :) Those of you "down under" in the
southern regions of the World, dont have that problem
like we do here in the North.
Welcome to our new members! We would like to
have you all post some information to the list on
your CAVE lines. Please be sure to give us the
names, locations, and dates if you know them.
We have folks from all over the World here, so
Location is very important!
Older members why not repost your lines to let
the new members see who you are hunting and
your connections.
As most of you know by now,
familytreemaker.com
and Genfourm is now owned by the
Myfamily.com
part of A&E Network. You will see some changes
when visiting any of the three major web sites,
Rootsweb, Ancestry and now Familytreemaker.
If you have any questions about any of the sites,
you can find most answers at the home pages or
links at the web sites.
If you havent added a GEDCOM to the World
Connect web site I would like to encourage all
of you to do so. It can be small or large, that
doesnt matter. You can update it as needed.
You can post with or without notes. You can
pick the cut off year for your files. Mine is 100
years to protect the folks who dont want that
recent information on line. It is amazing how
many contacts we have had since I got the
courage to add my family tree on this site.
Many cousins have found us!
Please continue to use the message boards,
at both Rootsweb and Genfourm, as they are
very good locations for getting the word out there
about your families and letting others know who
you are actively looking for or any problem you
may be having. Some times it takes a couple of
years to make contact so PLEASE be sure to
keep your email address current at these boards.
Best Wishes to everyone and Good Hunting!
