Hi everyone,
There are some opportunities for involvement that are currently
available within The MDGenWeb Project. If you have an interest in
Dorchester County, or African-American, or Native American genealogy,
and you have at least basic knowledge of html and ftp uploading, this is
an opportunity for you to become part of one of the best state projects
associated with The USGenWeb Project.
1. The Dorchester County site for The MDGenWeb Project is available for
adoption.
2. We are looking for someone to launch a topical state special project
for African-American genealogy.
3. We are looking for someone to launch a topical state special project
for Native American ancestry.
As USGenWeb Local Coordinators (County Coordinators, or CCs, and State
Special Project Coordinators, or SSPCs), we are able to help our fellow
researchers, and "give back" to the genealogical community by sharing
our knowledge and skills. Becoming a CC can be very fulfilling and
rewarding, both in terms of learning more about the history of Maryland
and/or your chosen county or topic, and helping others with their
genealogical research.
If you're interested and would like to apply, or if you just want more
information about CC and SSPC duties, take a look at our Volunteer page
(

Thanks!
