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
Would like to trace your ancestors but have not done much so far and do not
really know where to start?
If the answer is yes, have a look at RootsWeb's Guide to Tracing Family Trees
at
http://www.rootsweb.com/~rwguide/
And if you still do not have a genealogy program to enter it all in, check
out the free one (Windows only) from Personal Ancestral File (PAF) at
http://www.familysearch.org/whats_new.asp
This program will make it easy to enter data, print ancestors and descendants
trees and reports. You will also be able to create gedcom files (exchange
format) that you can send to other people working on the same surnames as
you, even if they are using a different program. You will also be able to
read gedcom files that other people send you.
And if you have questions, just ask this list. Quite a few experts are
listening ready to help you.
