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
Hi Guys,
Here is an announcement about a new feature at Rootsweb.
There is a new resource, Classified Ads Boards, that can now be found
from a
link on the cluster page for our surname. As you know the Cluster page
serves as a navigation aid to all resources for our surname housed on
RootsWeb. The Cluster page for the [insert surname] surname can be
found at:
[http://resources.rootsweb.com/surnames/c/l/CLAYWORTH/]
You know that advertising (even when it can be helpful in our
genealogical
research) is generally not allowed on our mailing list and GenConnect
boards.
In an effort to help genealogists locate genealogical items, or list
items
being offered for sale, for example, out of print books you might be
looking
to sell or purchase, RootsWeb has created Classifieds at RootsWeb.
These
Classified Ad Boards work in the same way the GenConnect boards work and
are
only to be used for items of a genealogical nature pertaining to the
surname
shown on the board.
These boards provide an outlet to help in our research for items that
couldn't be properly listed elsewhere on RootsWeb. Enjoy them and use
them
to your best advantage!
Take care
Jayne
Hi Guys,
Some of you may have already heard about the new version of PAF but for
those of you who haven't I recommend you take a look at it.
Version 4 of Personal Ancestral File is a full family history software
program and it's FREE.
You can download it at the following site:
http://download.familysearch.org/default.asp
I have just downloaded it and find it so much better than the DOS
version. It has a book creating feature, a webpage creation option
along with the usual reports and charts and such.
Take care
Jayne
