This has been received from the Rootsweb administration: Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state. Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb. As an alternative to RootsWeb Mailing Lists, Ancestry message boards are a great option to network with others in the genealogy community. Message boards are available for free with an Ancestry registered account. Thank you for being part of the RootsWeb family and contributing to this community. Sincerely, The RootsWeb team We are presently setting up email groups at https://groups.io/. If there is interest in migrating this list to groups.io please respond to this message to that effect ASAP. With heavy hearts, Jim and Di

We just wanted to encourage you all to make use of this list in your family searches. A large number of Rootsweb lists have been made inactive due to no messages over a period of time. We want to keep as many lists active as we possibly can and your participation will help toward that goal. If you have a "brick wall" in your family search, send in a message with as much information as you have and let's see if someone may be able to help fill in those blanks. Best wishes, Jim and Di

Hi, Folks . . . Me again, with some housekeeping items that I'm hoping will help the AOL 6.0 users. As on other Lists, we (I) have been getting bounced mail from AOL 6.0 users. After (8) bounces the RW Smart server bumps the user off the List; some I've removed manually. Sadly, those subscribers will not know there is a solution. AOL 6.0 sends all mail by default in HTML. RootsWeb servers won't accept HTML . . . aka: A bounce. Now there are two schools of thoughts at RW. One, the Helpdesk has formulated a work-around for AOL users until the glitch can be remedied. ________________________________________________________________ The Help Desk has been getting questions like this so often for the last two days, that a notice has been posted with the work around: http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/announce.html#AOL_html You can go to the Helpdesk and check it out yourself or you might try one of these work-around that came straight from a Helpdesk reply: #1 -- "We've had AOL members give us two approaches which might work for you: AOL 6 -- plain text 1) Compose your email as normal in AOL 6. 2) Right click the text scroll box. 3) Select All. 4) Right click text again and select text Normal. 5) Send the email." #2 -- "And . . . .AOL says that 6.0 users with plain-text problems should use the following alternatives to send plain text only: 1. When authoring mail in AOL 6.0 remove all formatting from the message body and send the message in the AOL 6.0 default of Arial, size 10 - do not include any bold, italics, underline, colors, or other styles. 2. Use AOL Mail on the Web (at http://www.aol.com) to send mail - AOL Mail on the Web sends mail as plain text only. We've also seen some problems with 6.0 users where cutting and pasting has resulted in backgrounds unknowingly being picked up and resulting in total gibberish. To counter this problem, you can copy to Notepad, save as text, and then copy/paste from Notepad." ____________________________________________________________________ Confused yet, AOL users? Here's another bit of info on the prob . . . Tim, the RootsWeb programmer guru, thinks he's fingered the trouble. Seems AOL in 6.0 has added a space, probably inadvertently, in a line in the headers of the emails. This has resulted in RootsWeb's HTML stripper to not be able to process these messages as plain text. Ergo a bounce occurs. Tim has made an adjustment to make up for this AOL change and hopefully the problem goes away now. If you're still not able to post, have been bumped from a List (good way to check that is make a quick trip to RootsWeb Password Central) or heaven forbid, not getting any mail at all, I suggest after you confirm with a Password Central report that you're still subbed you try one of the work-arounds above and see if that works for now. ______________________________________ -- Kathleen List Admin

Hello, Family Researchers . . . I've no idea what stage any of you are in your research but I came across this site and thought it a good one to bookmark. Your never know when you might need to interpret just what they meant on that old death certificate, coroner's inquest minutes or an autopsy report. I think you'll find it useful, as well. http://www.paul_smith.doctors.org.uk/ArchaicMedicalTerms.htm ____________________________________________________ Kathleen List Admin

Greetings, Looking for more descendants of William CRASWELL & Mary JEWELL, who settled on Prince Edward Island, with a family of 8 children, in the early 1800s. Another branch has just found me, thus renewing my interest in this branch of my family. There is still a lot of loose ends in this family. The first 4 generations can be found at <www.islandregister.com> in the linerages section. Must keep rooting, TINY

If you have tried going to the PA Dept of Health's website for birth/death records lately, you'll know it has moved. For those of you who haven't, you should . . . go to the NEW PA Vital Records Website, that is, if you research in Pennsylvania at all . . . The PA Dept of Health, Division of Vital Records has a new website: a few weeks old. If you haven't been there, you should check it out. http://www.health.state.pa.us/vitalrecords/ After 1916, Phila. vital records are now only available from the Division of Vital Records.' Further, as I now understand it, death records may only be requested by the decedent's "family members" (for genealogical purposes). You might want to read up on the policies, etc. at the new site.
