I'm the new List Mom for ARCOLUMB, the mailing list for Columbia County, Arkansas. From this list, I've had the pleasure of meeting new cousins and others who have information about my family lines. There are currently 106 people subscribed in list mode and 18 people subscribed in digest mode. If there are inappropriate messages posted, please do not respond to the list. I will contact the sender in a personal message. Below are LIST GUIDELINES from ROOTSWEB. POST ONLY MATERIAL YOU OWN: When you post to RootsWeb, you must either be the copyright holder (that basically means you wrote it), have written permission from the copyright holder, or the material must clearly be in the public domain. You may do lookups from copywrited material, but you should cite your source(s). YOU OWN YOUR POSTS: When you post messages to mailing lists, message boards, and other facilities at RootsWeb, those posts remain your property under copyright law. YOU SHOULD NOT DECREASE THE ENJOYMENT OF OTHERS: Your posts should not flame or otherwise harass other users and should be reasonably on topic for the areas where they appear, and you should otherwise adhere to the principles of netiquette. Information about netiquette is available on many Internet sites. COMMERCIAL ACTIVITIES REQUIRE PERMISSION: (1) RootsWeb's intent is to provide a friendly and, as much as possible, noncommercial environment. Any activity that involves the exchange of money requires prior permission from RootsWeb. (2) It is okay to post information about where to obtain resources regarding genealogical research in Columbia, Arkansas, i.e., books from SoWeAr. If in doubt, please contact the List Mom to obtain permission BEFORE posting. I do not live in Arkansas and cannot help you with "hands-on" research there. Please let me know if you have any questions about this mailing list.
