Hello Keller/Kellar Researchers, I have finished entering all the BRICK WALLS that have been sent to the list. For those of you who have submitted them please go to the following site and check them for mistakes: <http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~geishome/ggg/listpage/kell.htm/kellwalldex.h tm> Out of the 128 subscribers to both the Keller and Kellar Mailing lists, only 24 entries have been submitted. That leaves 104 subscribers who haven't sent in their BRICK WALLS. From those that did, I have noticed something that has surprised me. All 24 entries are for the KELLER surname, none are for the KELLAR surname. Now for the other problem that I have noticed. The KELLAR mailing list has 104 subscribers while the KELLER mailing list has 42. 18 from each list are subscribed to the other list. That means that 86 subscribers to the KELLAR list don't see the posts to the KELLER list and 24 subscribers to the KELLER list don't see the posts to the KELLAR list. This is a problem that I believe we have to solve for the benefit of both lists. At this moment the only solution that I see is for the welcome message to explain this and try to get everyone to subscribe to one of the lists. I will be drafting a personal welcome message that I will send out in addition to the canned one from Rootsweb. This message will include the URL's for the Rootsweb Resources page, the Mailing List web site and the GenConnect Forums. I will also explain the BRICK WALL web pages and encourage the new subscribers to post their BRICK WALLS. It is in this message that I will explain the dual list situation and point them to the list that we decide will be the "HOME" list (if that is the solution that the majority agrees upon). I'd like everyone to give me feedback via my personal email address on these topics. Thank You, ------- Glenn G.
