A new system has been added at http://www.tavistock.net/gedview which will become part of the Tavistock web site when opened in May. It's an on-line web genealogy program (basically similar to Persoanl Ancestry File, Lineages, Brothers Keeper, etc but with many more features) with a wide assortment of charts and options for the public, as well as including a number of innovative ways for contributors to look after their gedcoms. I'm initially looking for 3 individuals from this list who have done their own research and have gedcoms from the Grey area and who would like to participate in the site. The info would be made public but privacy controls are built in for each individual gedcom. You would control your own data and be able to take public input and approve any changes. You can see a preliminary setup at http://www.tavistock.net/gedview Only the "Tavistock & Area" gedcom is available for viewing at present and then only for dead persons. It is merely meant to show how the system works without interfering with current system input and configuration. Of course, live persons will be shown when it goes on-line. Currently, about 25,000 names are in the system. I am looking for persons with good sized gedcoms whose last century roots are in Oxford, Perth and Waterloo and whose forebears moved westward into the Huron District. This will allow for the updating and linkage of the gedcoms from the base counties already in the system. Although the site will be open to the public, this data will be protected by privacy controls. Only contributors will have more specific access and be able to alter their own data or add additional controls. Of course, contributors will have access to current databases and receive additional research help. JK
