Hope you can join us! > >Our current schedule on #GenealogyForum runs through Dec. 1. Time to be putting the new one up and I would REALLY like some suggestions on this. We had a guest last nite who suggested an evening covering definitions in old documents and says he has a lot of resources to help with this. What do you think??? Think it would be of benefit? > >The Afternet Community channels are slowing gaining visitors. #genealogie reports they had eleven guests last nite and #Gen-Southern-Ohio had a good evening also! > >We now have twenty registered genealogy channels on Afternet and there are drawing more and more people. It seems our vision is becoming a reality. The comradeship and fellowship in the channels is something we can all be pleased about and the quality and quantity of genealogical resources is growing steadily. > >Scheduling for the day/time of meetings in the individual channels is difficult to centralize so I am listing the channels and the channel host/hostess's email so that you can contact them directly for the day and time that they meet. Of course, the channels are always available to meet someone who has like interest, regardless of whether a meeting is scheduled at a particular time that you are online. Join the channel of your choice while you 'surf the web'. If you come by #GenealogyForum, someone can tell you how to install a doorbell on the channel you will be in so that you can 'hear' when someone joins you. > >#Genealogy-Native Cheyanne cheyanne@nctc.com >#Gen-Stillwell gouger dhunter@cdsnet.net >#Gen-Gray JustMe2 dssnip@q1.net >#Genealogy-Dutch dutchroots dutchroots@mindspring.com >#Gen-Etheridge Belle fdy@gate.net >#Gen-Dyess Belle fdy@gate.net >#Gen-Adams Grandmary grandmary@net-port.com >#Gen-McCabe Conway mccabe@istar.ca >#genealogie Pteraspis mercure@videotron.ca >#OntarioGenWeb Robinator robin@mnsi.net >#HudFam (Hudnall) Rogerj rogerh@apex2000.net >#Gen-Worden Jules vcourneye@netcompass.net >#Gen-McGowan wichywmn wichywmn@erols.com >#Gen-Georgia Shoeless LMAdams@utw.com >#Gen-Thompson LookingGlass >#Gen-Wilson tex^mom seekr@flash.net >#Gen-Southern-Ohio JaiBird jaibird@infocom.com >#Gen-CivilWar fredr@95net.com > >#GenealogyForum gen4m@flash.net >(open discussions nightly) >#Gen-Community gen4m@flash.net >(for mIRC classes and operator meetings i.e. Town Hall) > >I think most of us has at least one of the surnames that has a channel for it. Drop by and lend your support to the host even if you only have one person with that surname and it is an inlaw. That individual could be the missing link to anothers line. Success of an IRC channel is counted in numbers.... the more people in a channel, the more likelihood of others stopping in. > >Tell a friend about our Community, then both of you tell your mailings lists. You can reach people whom we cannot. Give them the webpage address for instructions on downloading mirc and join our Afternet Community and for IRC rules of etiquette, (The Kats Page). Connections between guests are becoming commonplace! > >If you are interested in starting your own surname channel, the registration page for Afternet is linked to their logo on our Other IRC Channels page. > >tex Visit the Dickeys and Ole John Wilson NC/TN/TX http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ranch/9101/ From #GenealogyForum IRC Channel on Afternet: http://www.rare.on.ca/users/genealogyforum/index.htm Contains Surnames of Channel Visitors
