To the "old" subscribers (i.e., more than 1-2 days), about 150 people have joined the "party" within the last day. Our new subscribers are coming from Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United States, and we all wish them a BIG WELCOME. This list has a GREAT potential, but much of its success will be up to you, the subscribers. Use this list to post genealogical queries, but also to exchange information about clan history and culture, as well as about your clan organizations. For the newbies (and not-so-newbies), I am going to create a link on the list home page (see address at bottom of this message) to a page of links to some basic information on clans and clan "culture." I hope this list of links will grow over time, but it will never take the place of the Mega-Link pages out there. So, to get things rolling, I am offering two threads: 1) Culloden -- I am going to post a short history of Clan Chattan's role at that battle and ask subscribers to ask questions, provide information, talk about their clan's role at this battle, etc.; and 2) Neat web pages you have found and why you like them. Cheers, Joe Broom List Manager
