Hi, I learned about this mail list from the Genealogy workshop at the Cocoa Library last Thursday. I have been asked by a publisher to write an article about Writing Family Histories. I would like to interview people who have written a book or a manuscript of a family history. If you would like to answer a few questions and don't mind seeing them in print send me email. I look forward to getting to know some people on this mail list.
