Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Since the lists for the various Americanized spellings for the Germanic surname KÖHLER will be shut down, you might want to consider the FaceBook Group called KÖHLER Genealogy. It is for anyone with any variation of today's 100+ spellings of the name. It can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/804234909593248/ The group is fairly new, and right now we have about 78 members.
Although I had no linking that the lists would be shut down, I knew that the traffic on them had slowed considerably. Therefore, I began this FaceBook group. Please feel free to join us there.

Those of us who administer the Roosweb lists have been informed that the lists will be permanently shut down as of 2 March 2020. These many lists served us well for many years and will be sorely missed by many. The archives will be available and searchable for anyone interested.
