Repeat of mail Sent: Saturday, November 22, 2014 6:01 PM Hi One-Namers everywhere I'd like to also echo Tessa's recommendation to start a Guild profile, but like Vivian, not from the perspective of a Guild member, but rather from what it looks like from someone looking at the Guild from outside. I last updated mine at least of 20 years ago. See me and Cousin Russ on Dear Myrtle's Google-Plus Hangout 'Mondays with Myrt' - 'Wacky Wednesday'' and Genealogy Game-Night' find recordings on YouTube. Would be good to see a few more Brits and members of Goons at that, joining the community and hanging out with us, this Monday we had a visit from our last Chairman, Kirsty Gray in her capacity as Chair of the Surname Society, sad that their website had crashed so we couldn't see it. I for one, am more than happy with the way we have moved on from our growing pains, and won't be joining them anytime soon John Laws Registrar Laws Family Register www.lawsfamilyregister.tribalpages.com www.lawsandlawes.blogspot.com Member of GOONS for 30 years.
Dear John et al I have a Guild profile - thanks to Roy Rayment for his badgering years ago - but I have to say I have had just one enquiry through the page over the two years I have had it. Better than nothing though I guess, with such a 'rare name'. With my separate Sillifant website, which is not even fully up and running, I have had three people already getting in touch and it's only been lurking about online since September this year. Thanks for your comments regarding Monday with Myrt - yes, a shame the website was down for 25 minutes which happened to coincide with the Hangout. Happens to the best of us and I seem to recall the Guild had a far more significant website outage when Anne was Webmaster some years ago. Sorry that the ethos of The Surname Society isn't for you and glad we managed to catch up, though briefly on Monday.
