Hello CHAFFEY list members!
I am Shirley Fergus your new list mom. I would personally like to thank each and every one
of you for being here and making this the great list that it is. The last list owner did a
great job and we thank them for it. I look forward to hearing from all of you. If you have
already posted your lineage, please continue to post it at least once a month for all new
commers to the list to see.
I am not quite sure of the rules that were set for this list, but like all of the other
lists that i currently run, i want to set out my set of rules upfront.
Please remember the following :
ALWAYS change your subject titles : People looking at the archives want to see the threads
from that particular post. They dont want to be reading about John Doe only to start
seeing posts about Jane Reilly and her children.
ALWAYS capatilize your surnames in the subject and in the post: Some of the new people may
ask why...well this is because you may have someone named Duncan or Davis, is this his
first or last name? By saying Duncan DAVIS you know the surname is Davis or vice versa by
saying DAVIS Duncan, its still the same, the guy's surname is Davis.
There is to be NONE of the following:
NO Off topic discussion : This board is specifically related to the CHAFFEY surname.
NO Virus Warnings: Should you have one that needs to be mentioned, please send it directly
to me. I ask you to do this because of HOAX warnings that are many times sent out, that
people look up and they have it on their computer, only to find that it was not a virus at
all but a vital program that keeps your computer running as it should. So please DO NOT
SEND THESE POSTS TO THIS LIST!
NO Prayer Requests : Its not that we do not care what is going on with friends and family,
just that this is not the place to do it as all posts are saved in the archives with
Rootsweb.
NO Jokes : For the same reason as above. People want to see the archives for the listing
of surnames and looking for family, not to hear a good/bad joke.
NO Spamming : We dont need any advertisement
NO Flaming other members : We do not need NOR do i tolerate any arguments. If you have an
opinion, either send it to me directly or keep it to yourself. Should i find an argument
started or ongoing by any member/ members you will be blocked from the list on the first
go round.
Thank you,
Shirley Fergus
List Mom
