To All Listmembers:
I have attempted to create something for us to use that I have had a great
experience with on another mailing list.
I have created a page through
MyFamily.com called the Owen county IN page.
This
is a webpage of a private and secure nature accessed through a password.
As with my other mailing list we had to adjust the categories they had
pre-programmed in there to our best usage.We cannot change their categories
but I have it all worked out now in order to make them work for our group.
These pages have the capabilities for us to place photos,queries,have an
instant messenger while onsite, and also to place gedcom's on.
This is a secure website with access only through a password not just for
anyone surfing the web to view.
On the other mailing list that I have a page at this site with we made the
following adjustments in order to be able to display all the various data we
want.
We have used the HISTORY section for--
cemetery listings,burials,obits and marriage records and wills
We have used the REVIEW section for--
census records,bios,deeds
We have used the NEWS section for--
introductions,comments,queries,great websites,maps,genealogy helpers
We have used the FILE CABINET for--
posting anything else with a notation for what it is and the location
We have used the CALENDER section for --
posting of reunions and special genealogy events
This will give us a page to post some of these items that we want on the
list or are of interest. Some of these items that people have but can't
place anywhere.
If you are interested in this, please email me. I will send you an
invitation to this page that will have the password on it. Sorry, but this
is just how the page works and I can't change it.
All I need is your first and last name.
This is not meant to compete with any of the existing Owen county pages,
as they are just great. This is meant to be "our" place for storing
data,reunion announcements,a file cabinet so to speak for Owen county
related items.
This is meant to be a companion piece for our mailing list. A place to
enter various pieces of info that may not make it to the list.We will
also have a section for running threads of memories of old school days
in Owen county schools.
I am offering this because we have had alot of success with it on the
other mailing lists.
The site is free and only persons interested enough to ask for the access
code will be there so all persons viewing it will be very interested
persons.
I have not had a chance to place anything on this site yet in the way of
data, but I am trying to get it going and then everyone can enter data.
I will not set this up with data if there is nobody interested.
You can also invite persons to join it by sending them an invitation.
Look forward to hearing from you.
