Someone certainly could create a webpage at freepages with links to the wayback machine to make it easier to find important old sites. That is how I handled things on my backup site, I made a webpage that linked to all the individual pages from my freepages site, in the Wayback Machine at archive.org. I knew it would be hard for people to get the long links straight if they were printing or emailing or typing them out. Sites like this should be restored even thought the creater is deceased, but I guess they want a live person to take part in the restoration. Pretty crumby. They restored all the genweb sites they could identify, these others that were not genweb but basic genealogy resources should be grandfathered in as if that was the case with them as well.

I agree they all should be restored. When I started my sites I asked them what would happen to them when I die and was told they would still be in place. I guess we really need a co-owner just in case. I am 75 and a lot of the website owners are older than me, so yes they should all be restored thelma Moye On Sunday, August 12, 2018, 5:27:20 PM EDT, the cohens <the.cohens.in.california@gmail.com> wrote: Someone certainly could create a webpage at freepages with links to the wayback machine to make it easier to find important old sites.

Two aspects 1. I thought data folk put hosted sites on Rootsweb would always be available. So if originator is deceased we look at Wayback machine. Lot of map site I liked may not be recovered so I will look at wayback. 2. I have not heard from Hugh Wallis for some time. He did not tell me there were problems with his method using new FamilySearch and that sadly they had not adopted his method. There were ways of browsing their sites by batch numbers etc but I have not used for some time I do suggest https://www.familysearch.org/mapp for looking at parishes etc. PS whole site not working at moment Thank You from Ron Lankshear in NSW Awaiting Recovery http://sites.rootsweb.com/~lankshear

The WayBack machine is NOT something automatically run across the Internet. A webmaster has to request a site be crawled. So while a great idea, finding a site there is not guaranteed.

I have never requested that my sites be crawled. Genealogy Web Creations was first crawled in 2006 and appears to have been crawled regularly since then. So have some of the others. I think on some sites it is the luck of the draw as to how much you can find.

After using the Wayback Machine to kelp recovery two very important, at least to my family lines, family sites I can testify that no one recording ever gets everything on a site. From my experience pictures seem to be the biggest loss. On 08/13/2018 08:17 AM, Patricia Geary wrote: > I have never requested that my sites be crawled.

I've never asked for any of my sites to be recorded yet they seem to have been. On 08/13/2018 03:25 AM, JFlorian wrote: > The WayBack machine is NOT something automatically run across the > Internet.

Try dropping the freepages. genealogy and replacing it with sites.rootsweb. With that it will come up if it is restored and back online. Thelma On Sunday, August 12, 2018, 5:24:00 AM EDT, niall_sanderson@email.com <niall_sanderson@email.com> wrote: Does anyone know when this very useful site will be back and in what form? http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hughwallis/IGIBatchNumbers.htm Is Hugh Wallis still active? _______________________________________________ Email preferences: http://bit.ly/rootswebpref Unsubscribe and Archives https://mailinglists.rootsweb.com/listindexes/search/freepages-help Privacy Statement: https://ancstry.me/2JWBOdY Terms and Conditions: https://ancstry.me/2HDBym9 Rootsweb Blog: http://rootsweb.blog RootsWeb is funded and supported by Ancestry.com and our loyal RootsWeb community
