I've got an idea that might work - that is, to make a site map that covers
the counties located on
idgenweb.org. I'll do some testing first and then
give it a try.

Come to think of it, I submitted a sitemap for the Archives and it
didn't
work well as each county in a sub-folder is NOT a domain. Even though
nearly 400 pages were indexed and Google accepted the sitemap, Google's
crawler pointed to many of the sub-folders and NOT the pages in them.
There may be a work around. Maybe not.
Bottom line ... as CCs, I don't think we can submit sitemaps for our
counties because they are not domains. They are sub-domains, if that is
the correct term.
