Attention USGenWeb SC's, CC's, and all Volunteers:
This is official notification of a new USGW Committee:
Like you, we are County Coordinators involved with the USGenWeb
Project, we support free online genealogical information to assist
all researchers in gaining their family origins. We are a small group
not currently sanctioned by the USGW Board. Our goal is to
improve the current By-Laws which will provide new and improved
leadership guidelines. As many of you know, we have recently lost two
National Coordinators and four Board representatives which we
believe is due in part to the lack of workable By-Laws. We need and
desire your help, opinions, and comments to help us fine tune the
By-Laws.
We believe leadership of this project should come from the majority of
the membership, the SC's, CC's and Volunteers who conduct the business
of this project daily. We believe to continue to grow in an effective,
progressive manner the majority must govern,and that majority is you!
To accomplish our goal we need sponsorship of several states and much
support from everyone involved with this project.
We have provided a bulletin board site for you to post your suggestions
concerning the By-Laws. You will find examples of our work on the
By-Laws at this site also.

You will find a copy of the current By-Laws on the following USGW site:

If any of you would like to join this committee, please contact the
following e-mail. We intend to keep this committee small, diversified,
and composed primarily of CC's. mmhill(a)dwp.net
We hope all members of the USGenWeb Project will join us in this
endeavor. All who have worked so diligently on this project in the past
and will continue in the future deserve a democratic and efficient
working
environment.
With great sincerity,
Roger Swafford CC Chair
