Most of the hits for GA are from the Political Graveyard site. They list
our county pages on them that link to our sites. To search for the USGENWEB
stuff on there, you type USGENWEB in the keyword block with nothing else and
it lists every page taken from there, most of it is archive stuff. There's
so much of it though, I can't check all of it. If you know exact names of
the submitter of a file in Peach County, try searching for it that way. For
example I search for Virginia Crilley as the name with USGENWEB as the
keyword. Since she is our archives person it shows every file that they
have spidered so far with her name on it.

Sandy,
I am pretty sure my stuff is up there. My county was not formed until
1924 so I wasn't seeing but
a few hints a week. Over the last two weeks I have been getting a lot
more hits for some reason
and most view one page and never come back. I'm already going ballistic.
what did you click on or go to to find out your pages were not up there????

there.
If
you don't read any of the other USGENWEB lists, there is a lot
going on
all
across the internet, not just us. Some people have taken down their
sites,
put disclaimers, etc. For now, I will wait and see what happens. Or
until
something from my site shows up and I go ballistic LOL At least they
have
backed off of it being part of a subscription, but you still have to
register, so they get your info anyway.
One thing I found out. There is no filter on the search at all. Search
for
all the porno you want, it shows up.

Ed,
I really read with interest the information you provided about
Ancestry.com. I doubt seriously that putting that
note from Sylvia will do too much good. From what I was reading on that
link you provided you can get a
snapshot of the page without even going to the website!!! While they
may have decided to make it free now
that means they still do not have to go to my site and see all the work
and information that has gone into it.
Plus the website in Peach will soon have the footer on every page that
says it is copyrighted and they have
no legal reason to justify using copyrighted material. I am not talking
about the information on my site, I am
talking about all the design work and effort to get that menu fully
implemented. That's what really concerns
me and if they view a portion of the page they may not even see the
copyright notice or even the menu,
because I am using incHeader.htm and incFooter.htm while they can pull
up a page without either of those
items showing (I think??) I may investigate Ancestry to see what shows
up for Peach in their new database.
