Pat,
I think we've all gotten these messages. Of course, everyone is free
to link to whatever genealogical site s/he wishes. There were too
many commercial links for my taste. Ed pointed out that the sender
may be involved in one of the programs that pays a fee for site
promotion, which would explain the mass email campaign.

I've gotten a couple of messages from this group, suggesting links
that I should provide
on my county sites. This particular one is for Bamberg County
SCGenWeb, but I've gotten
this kind of message for other counties, too. I wish I had saved
them, because I can't
remember the name(s) of the other sender(s). It looks like just a
site of links to other
sites. When I clicked on the link she provided, I got an error message.
Certainly, there's no indication that she has any particular
interest with or affiliation
to the USGenWeb counties I host.

Hi Pat!
I hope you're not too busy, but I recently came across your page
http://www.oldplaces.org/bamberg/ while putting together a bunch of
useful pages for the
students that I work with and since I've added it to our collection,
I just wanted to drop
you a quick email and say thanks!
Just out of curiosity, how long have you been interested in
genealogy? It's nice to see
that there are still people out there that make at least somewhat
constructive use of
their time on the internet, rather than Twittering or whatever they
do these days, lol :)
Making family trees has been so popular among the middle schoolers
that I work with that
we've had to limit how many of them can use it for their projects!!
Anyway, I just wanted to share a page with you that I came across
while putting together
our collection,
http://www.usa-people-search.com/content-searching-your-roots-genealogy-f....
Since your site is similar, I thought you should add it to your page
as well. Take a look
at it and let me know what you think!
Thanks again for taking some time out of your day!
Sincerely,
Alexa Butler
