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
If anyone needs the information, I just read in the1884 Great Register of
Voters for Los Angeles County the following Info:
Claiborne, Len..age 25....born Virginia...occupation
Lawyer....registeredApril 2, 1884
Hope somebody can use this.

Hello,
It's the first of the month, and time for another modified ROLL CALL...The
topic for March is "Recent Research Efforts", so please apply the
'Who-What-When-Where' guidelines, and tell us something about your current
interests. Be sure to put your own words in the subject line instead of just
'roll call'.
There is a new service at RootsWeb called 'Password Central' that I think
you'll find interesting. You can now go to one place and request the names of
all the RootsWeb lists you belong to, and in which mode you're subscribed,
give you your passwords and account names, and the names of any lists you
admin.
They will be e-mailed to you in a few minutes, and only you can receive them.
You can print out the results to save, but you may also go back any time to
recheck your information.
Here's Password Central: http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com
I'm also including, below, a notice regarding Rootsweb's excellent 'Guide to
Tracing Family Trees', a set of 26 interactive topics that will be
interesting and informative to beginners as well as those who have been at
this awhile....8-)
Thanks,
LaRae
