Hi, We want to invite any of you who are interested to join our new email list. The name is DEU-Nahausen, and it's for sharing information and resources about ancestors who lived in or near Nahausen, Brandenburg, and their descendants anywhere. Surnames will include, but not be restricted to, FELLWOCK, SASSE, and OERTWIG. Other surnames from Nahausen are welcome also. Nahausen was in Brandenburg, in Kreis Koenigsberg-Neumark. Today it is Nawodna, just a few kilometers north of Chojna, Poland. A number of people from Nahausen settled in Dodge County, WI, and in Fayette Co. IL, and of course, their descendants branched out from there. Briefly, people can subscribe to the list in mail mode by sending a message to DEU-NAHAUSEN-L-request@rootsweb.com that contains the word subscribe and nothing else. If you prefer digest mode, you should send the command to DEU-NAHAUSEN-D-request@rootsweb.com. After you have subscribed, you will receive a welcome message. I'd suggest you file that in a folder in your email program so you can refer to it when/if you need to unsubscribe for a few days, or if you have other questions. The utilities are set so that if you want to reply to a message, it will automatically go to the whole list unless you change your message to "reply to sender only". That way we'll all benefit from the messages as well as the replies. BUT --- realize that your reply is "public" unless you take an extra step to send it privately to a specific person. In a few days, we should have a number of members, so the first day or so, we'll probably not want to send too many messages, unless we are willing to repeat them again. :-) If you have any questions about the list, please contact me. Thanks!
