Hi everyone,
Well, the play is over finally (for those of you who take the Jennings
county paper my son was Froggy LeSeuer) and things hopefully will settle
down to normal and I can get back to genealogy. I know alot of you are
anxiously awaiting information from me and I hope now I will be able to
make more trips to the library. Thanks for your patience.
I've made a few changes on the GenConnect boards for Jennings county
(the obit, biography, Bible records, wills and deed boards). From now
on, if someone posts on one of those boards, it will go to this list
(keep people from having to check the boards). Also, I have made it so
you can't post a response to one of these boards. These boards are
strictly informational boards (posting known facts about an ancestor)
and not for queries (we have a query board for that). Many times I would
post an obit (I'm slow but I'm still working on that project) and
someone would respond to the obit with a question about this person.
GenConnect doesn't allow that and the board is now set up so posting a
follow up is not an option. If you want to ask questions or ask for
information about an ancestor, please use the query board.
Lastly, I've changed it so that all the obits, bios, etc. are displayed
regardless of when it was posted. Previously only the last month or six
months was shown and you had to search to find something older than
that. Many people thought the older ones had been deleted. From now on,
they are all displayed. If the page gets too large, then I might have to
change that, but for now there's not too much info on any of these
boards to put it all onto one page.
I can make it so that any queries posted on the query board are also
sent to the list. Before I did that though, I wanted to check with all
of you and see how you feel about that. I know many of you don't want
the extra mail and others might want to see what's available. Let me
know how you feel about this. It doesn't matter to me.
I'll be sending out another 120 years ago today article (Antoinette is
certainly a FAST typist). I hope to have this up on the page soon.
