Subject: My Sites are Up for Adoption
Hi Everyone,
I really don't like the idea of giving up my sites, however, there is no
way that I can maintain them any longer. I have had Decatur County now
for almost 4 years, and the Unknown Queries for about 2 1/2, plus I just
recently took on Seminole County. I have been very fortunate in these
years to have had some great help with the sites as well as some really
good researchers assistance. Due to computer problems and wishing to get
back to my own research, which I have almost abondanded in the last year, I
must give these sites up.
The Decatur County site has some really good researchers in the county that
will send information all the time. Alot of the county records have
already been transcribers, as well as bible, cemetery, civil war, and
census records all ready accomplished. We were really luckily to in the
fact that The Bainbridge PostSearch Light (the local newspaper), gave the
site permission to post online all obits that have ever appeared in there
paper, and this permission goes with the site. While Seminole being a
fairly new county to being with is relatively low on data available. Both
of these counties are now just waiting on someone to step forward and take
them over.
All data currently located on all 3 sites, stay with the county and need
not be removed.
The GAGenWeb Unknown Queries have been a treat to do. They to are ready
to take over, and I am now writing up the instructions on the format they
are in as well as, how they are set up now. There is currently a problem
with the mail merge format that is used, and I will before I completely
hand it over, get this straightened out for the new Coordinator.
If you are interested in any of these sites, for the Unknown Queries please
contact Tim Stowell at tstowell(a)chattanooga.net and for either the
Decatur or Seminole County sites, please contact the regional cooridnator
these Jimmy Eppy at eppy(a)ticnet.com.
For all of you that helped me make the Decatur County site what it is
today, Thank You so much for all the efforts and hard work that you
contributed toward that goal.
