Hi all,
It's come to my attention that the redirects from the old discontinued
GenConnect boards to the newer respective county Message Boards are no
longer working.
I made a visit to all WAGenWeb counties and discovered we have 14
counties directly affected, ie., no queries or query entry point.
Several other counties have working queries, but also links to the non
working GC boards or GC search engine.
You are free to use any query system you wish. If you would like to use
the Message Boards, the following is the link format. Just change the
county name to yours, lower case, spelled out complete no spaces, ie.,
.graysharbor
Believe it or not, this is the short version of the link, but it will
still wrap in email, so cut & paste as necessary.
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/board/rw/localities.northam.usa.states....
For those who would like to retain the separate GC puzzle icons for
obits, bios, etc., you can add the respective name type as follows.
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/board/rw/localities.northam.usa.states....
This will pre-select the way the messsags are viewed. The &c= type name
is the same as used in the drop down "View Message Type" box on the
message boards. If no &c= is used, the default is "All" type messages.
The link for the Washington Unknown County board is:
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/board/rw/localities.northam.usa.states....
On a less critical matter, if you have mention and email for Celia as
state coordinator on your page, please update to yours truly.
Thanks,
