If you have not yet taken advantage of using IRC (Internet Relay Chat) to
help with your research, you are missing out on a GREAT resource!
The community of Genealogy Channels on Afternet IRC have created a
'neighborhood' of Genealogy Societies of the CyberWorld. We share
resources, do lookups for each other, help each other with our webpages,
recommend helpful websites and have a wonderful time doing it!
There are chat channels for the Surnames listed above, for the areas
mentioned and other channels are in the planning stages. If you are
interested in starting a channel for the area or surname of interest to
you, come by #GenealogyForum channel on Afternet and someone will be happy
to help you get started.
You can find the scheduled date and time for theses channels on the Events
page of our website...

We designed our website with the NEW IRCer in mind. You will find MUCH to
help you get started..... how to download and setup the software needed to
connect to IRC and how to find us.... also setup for all the features of
the recommended software (mIRC) for most efficient use for genealogists.
There are mIRC classes held periodically on Afternet in the #Gen-Community
channel to help those of you who like a little personal tutoring.
While visiting our page, check our search index for channel visitors who
are researching the same surnames as you are and our BrickWall page.
Come join us... a little time spent to download and setup will pay
dividends in new cousins, and leads to others.
Hope to see you soon!
