I too have some problems with people posting to the BIO boards. I don't
see them used very often, but the bios that are put there are very good and
useful.
When I find a query, I remove it and then send a message to the poster
explaining that I had to remove their post because they posted it to the
wrong board.

Sheila,
I use the query board and to have obit boards for 2 counties. It is real
distressing that folks will post queries on the obit board. I have
considered getting rid of those boards. I haven't wanted to try an Bio
board or any of the others because of the failure of folks to read
directions.

I am interested in how many of you are using which boards that are
available for Rootsweb sites?
I am presently using the obits, query, and wills on Venango.
I think they are working well, however I am wondering about the bio
boards?
Do you have any difficultly with people knowing what to post.
I have had a few people post qeries on the obits and wills.
But I just delete them.
And by the way...
I am a violin teacher and player; and Midori is one of my favorite
violinists!
She has a video in which she is interviewed, as a child of about 9, and
she
says she likes music, because she said, to quote,
"Words are the source of much misunderstanding"
