    1. [GAMONROE] Postings to GenConnect Boards

    3. Howdy again everyone (twice in 2 days; this must be a record or something!) :-), I was just in visiting our GenConnect boards today and "cleaning them up" a bit. I noticed that there have been several postings to lists that do not apply to the topic of that list. Rather than just deleting them, I checked the Query board (which is where most of the stray postings belonged) and reposted them there before deleting them from the inappropriate board. For the most part, the postings applied, but I thought I'd review what each board is specifically for in hopes that I won't have to do this again for a while. I hope that this will clarify the purpose of these boards. I know when you are looking for information about your families that you want to post that question in as many places as possible; however, I would ask you to post them to the appropriate board so as not to clutter up the other boards with extraneous information. Thanks! :-) Mary Kozy ************************************* QUERY Board: This is where you post general questions, observations, etc. related to your families. The "I would like to find more...", "Does anyone know...?", "I have this and would like to share....", etc. kinds of questions. Almost ALL QUESTIONS go here. BIOS Board: This is specifically for biographies written about your ancestor. They may have been published in an old family history, a county history, a newspaper, or you may have written them yourself. It's a forum more for sharing information that you have than asking for information about an ancestor. OBITS Board: This is fairly self-explanatory. This is strictly for posting obituaries of your ancestors from Monroe County. Please don't ask for obits or general information on this board. Also, if you'd like to post your obit on our Obituary page on the site itself, I'd be happy to duplicate it there. For those of you who have posted your obits to this page, please let me know if you'd like me to post it there as well. I won't do this without your permission. BIBLE RECORDS: This again, is pretty obvious. It is for posting family Bible records that you may have that pertain to your ancestors from Monroe County. If you are looking for a family Bible, please post that on the Query board. DEEDS: For posting deeds from land sales in Monroe County, Georgia. PENSIONS: For posting pensions for military service in any war that pertain to Monroe County families. WILLS: This is for posting the wills/probate information of individuals that lived in Monroe County.
