The following lists have been created at Rootsweb: ALDALLAS -- Dallas County, Alabama ALELMORE -- Elmore County, Alabama ALMARENG -- Marengo County, Alabama ALWILCOX -- Wilcox County, Alabama I know that Pat Irons has created some lists on another server. I would like to update the list of mailing lists on the ALGenWeb site, http://www.rootsweb.com/~algenweb/mailing.html so please check it and let me know which lists are missing. I know that the four above and all of Pat's new lists are not there. (Pat, can I get the names of your lists and subscribing instructions to post?) Other lists created since November are most likely missing. If you, the County Coordinator, are not the owner of your county's mailing list, please work closely with the listowner. Mailing lists are another way of making connections and sharing information. Regards, Leigh
