PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE AND KEEP IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. Please feel free to forward this to anyone you feel may be interested in joining. Of course the more people we have the more help we will be for each other. What ever you did to subscribe to this list ,you succeeded. Should you decide to unsubscribe please read the instructions below. I have also included these instruction in the email taglines. You are currently subscribed in "mail mode", which means that you will receive every posting made to XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP (XX is a substitute for the state abbreviation) as a separate e-mail. The directions on how to change to digest mode are given below. I highly recommend that you subscribe in DIGEST mode, most of the lists are proving to very high volume. (Instructions below) How to change to digest mode (several postings are combined and sent to you together as a single large message). There are two steps. First, send the command "unsubscribe" to XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L-request@rootsweb.com (Remove the XX and replace it with your state abbreviation, see below) to discontinue mail mode. Second, send the command "subscribe" to XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP-D-request@rootsweb.com to start receiving digests. Good Luck in your research and enjoy the lists ;) CENSUS-LOOKUP Lists were Established 11 October 2000 Guidelines for posting to the lists: EMAIL SUBJECT LINES: COUNTY,YEAR,SURNAME NO FLAMING or you will be unsubbed without notice. By this I mean not only being rude or mean to each other but there will be NO and I do mean NO debating here about the Census Projects. This list is for everyone who wants to research. NO General requests such as "all Smiths in all counties" Be specific, Name the County, Family you are looking for and also the year. Try to supply as much info as possible. LIMIT your requests to ONE PER CENSUS YEAR and SURNAME My Mama taught me that Thank you and Please are always nice too :) MOST IMPORTANTLY Hang in there and don't get discouraged if your not answered right away, these lists will be a great asset to our research as they continue to grow. I am encouraging everyone to send this email to their surname and county mailing lists as well as to our cousins. Finally, If you have the material to help a fellow researcher, please use it. Thanks, Kelly A few people have emailed me asking how to sign up for the new lists and what to do. - ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. All lists are XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L-request@rootsweb.com (regular mode) XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP-D-request@rootsweb.com (digest mode) The XX is to be removed and the two letter abbreviation for the state you are looking in added in its place. Examples: MI-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L-request@rootsweb.com CA-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L-request@rootsweb.com IL-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L-request@rootsweb.com 2. So, send an email to the one of your choice (make sure to have the state). Do not put anything in the subject line. In the body of the email write only: subscribe Then send it on :) 3. POSTING to the new census lists: A. Send it to XX-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L@rootsweb.com (supply the two letter state code for the XX again) B: Subject line MUST have the following: County/Year/Surname Example: Saginaw/1850/Smith C: In the body of the email: List whom you are looking for. Supply as much information as you can. Birthplace, ages, occupation, etc. D: Mail it on! That's it folks :) I hope that helped. I have put the list of states and two letter codes below for you.
