Hi Philippa & the select few on this list!
The relative quietness on this list might be locked in a vicious circle
kind
of thing. Because there are so few people posting to this list, then
people
tend to post queries to the more voluble lists covering the area.
Just in
case you don't know them, the main ones are:
Monmouthshire-L(a)rootsweb.com
BlaenauGwent-L(a)rootsweb.com
MIDMARCH-L(a)rootsweb.com
(Midmarch covers a far wider are, covering the old Marcher lordships that
formed the borderlands between England & Wales formalized by the 1284
Statute of Rhuddlan, but which were shired with the 1536 & 1543 Acts of
Union)
[to subscribe. Send a message to
Monmouthshire-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
BlaenauGwent-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
MIDMARCH-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
that contains (in the body of the message) the command
subscribe
and no additional text]
Of those, the Monmouthshire list is the best for getting your queries
answered, but wouldn't it be nice to get more people nattering on this
list,
too?
x Kate.
