I found that a very enthusiastic person has taken the time, her own time to dedicate a new site, giving us the opportunity to give information and receive information once the VOLUNTEERS, (the operative word here is volunteer) are able to input the data. I have considered becoming a volunteer when I return home nest year after 20 years in the Air Force, but to be quite honest I am rethinking this decision. The only way I would now would be anonymously! We wonder why genealogy has so many roadblocks on the internet and why we must pay for information, well comments and reactions like this I am sure make up at least 50 % of that reason. I agree with Debra, I am considering leaving this list, but I know where to go to the site for my information! Janice Katherine Lund wrote: > What did you find at the new site?
