James The Island Register News --- Dec 19, 2003 This Newsletter/Update notice will come to you each week, whenever there is news to report from the Island Register, or from the Genealogical, Heritage, and Historical community on Prince Edward Island. I would sincerely hope that you find it a friendly, useful and fun adjunct to the Island Register Web Page. This week's newsletter this week is going out to 1724 people who have signed up to receive it since its first issue in February, 2001. Please tell your friends about the free newsletter/update service from the Island Register, and tell them how to receive it, and feel free to forward copies to friends who would be interested. Should your email address should ever change for any reason, I would ask that you come to the form on the Island Register's "What's New" Page, and using the delete function, type in your old address to delete it, then add your new address. If you are unsure how to do this, just email me giving both addresses. This will help eliminate unnecessary email bounce on the server. If you wish to "3ub3cribe" or "Un3ub3cribe" from the newsletter, you can also do this from the "What's New" page. For any of you who missed previous issues of the newsletter, and who would like a zipped file containing all back issues, please email me. There are getting to be too many issues to send unzipped, but the zipped version may be read with any of the more common un-zipping programs such as WinZip, Pk-Unzip, etc. If you do not have an unzipping utility, I can send the file as a self-extracting executable (.exe) file. It will arrive virus scanned and ready to go. Note: All email information is confidential. You will note that you are not asked for your name when you join the list - only the minimum information required to get the letter to you - your email address. Please help me out - if you have any notes of interest to the Register's users, P.E.I. Stories, Tales, Reminiscences, interesting tidbits, items for the newsletter, etc., that you would like to share, please pass them along to me so they may be added to future issues! Documents scanned, or in word processor format are preferred, and can be attached to an email, but if you have documents you would like to fax, I am now equipped with a plain paper fax machine - please contact me for my fax number.
