I joined this list to, maybe, find information on my Armstrong ancestors. Mostly I'm getting chit chat about spiders, apples, etc. What is going on with the Armstrongs? It's really not a genealogy chat list from what I've been reading. If it doesn't improve, I'll just unsub. Marylin

"It's really not a genealogy chat list from what I've been reading. If it doesn't improve, I'll just unsub." There's always one, isn't there? :(( Take care, Rob.

Marilyn, The Armstrong surname list was originally set up to discuss Armstrong History, Genealogy, and anything else of interest... Except Sex, Religion and Politics. You don't seem to be taking a very active roll in researching Your Armstrong's.. why don't you post and inquiry and join in...

Dear Marylin, If you read your welcome message you should have received when you subscribed to the Armstrong list you will see that this list, unlike most other genealogy lists, allows off-topic mail from time to time as long as it doesn't involve religion or politics. Right now we have been very chatty for the last few weeks; other times, the list is more quiet with mostly just genealogy queries. We do have many serious genealogists who are always ready to help when possible with the research problems of list members; however, we are also a group of friends, related by our name and interested in the Armstrong family. We enjoy getting to know other Armstrongs even though we don't know if we are really related to them in ways we can trace. Since we are all of the same clan, "cousins" so to speak, we like to know about each other's lives and interest as well as ancestors. We enjoy getting to know one another and some of us have made good Armstrong friends all over the world through this list. There is an Armstrong Gen-only list if you prefer. You can unsub from this list and sub to the Gen-0nly list, or you can sub to both lists, or you can stick with us and state your query. You can also subscribe to the digest for any list and then go through the mail more quickly, eliminating anything you don't want to read.
