Hi Cathy---Is this the book you have been working on, transcribing head stones, doesn't sound much like it.

As we begin another year of researching our ancestors, we need to give some thought to who is going to carry on this effort long-term? After all, at some point we too become ancestors. With this in mind, MCGS is once again presenting our annual youth program of Family History Contest Winners, this Wednesday the 28th, at 7:30. Come and enjoy listening to future genealogists read their personal essays. If you can bring your recyclable cans and bottles, these will help defray MCGS operating expenses. Bill Bryant, Secretary
This would be a good topic to go over at a CIG meeting. I noticed one you the upcoming meetins is on a blog, maybe you can explain how to do this at the meeting so some of us could see it on the computer.

Some of you have asked how to leave a comment on the MCGS blog. To leave comment on the MCGS blog, or any Google blog, follow these steps: 1. IF you have a Google blogger account, go to step #3. 2. IF you do NOT have a gmail e-mail account and/or a Google blogger account, you'll have to create one for yourself. This is an easy process. IF you create a gmail e-mail account first, then you can use that gmail address to create your Google blogger account. This is your choice. Many people like having a gmail e-mail account for a number of reasons so you can decide if you want one or not. Remember IF you WANT to create comments on the MCGS blog or any other Google blog, you will have to create a Google blogger account. If you choose not to create one, then you will only be able to read the MCGS blog or any other Google blog. 3. I've listed some basic steps below to help with the process. If you need more information, go to --> http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=42399. Please note: This article only covers Blogger's commenting system. Some Blogger users have installed third-party comment systems (e.g. Haloscan, Enetation, etc.) which will work differently. Please note that I've created this message from my notes and from Google blogger help. That means there may be typos, errors or directions that do not work for you. Please read the "Help" available on the MCGS blog if you need additional help. Enjoy!

Well, Gene - I attempted to register/sign up for the MCGS Blog and post a comment, but I guess I'm doing something wrong. Skilled with computers, I'm NOT! However, this is not the end of the world, not even news to me ;-) For anyone interested, there is a class at the National Archives in San Bruno on Census Records Research to be held March 20, a Friday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. There will also be a class on Passenger Arrival and Naturalization Records scheduled for April 17, also a Friday, 9 am - 1 p.m. Register by calling Rose Mary Kennedy at 650-238-3488. Fee is $15, payable in advance. I'll publish the rest of the schedule in the next Kin Tracer. Cathy Marin Co., CA ************** A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!

Have you become a fan of genealogy blogs yet? They've become very popular as a quick and easy way to share your genealogy information, tips, suggestions and comments with other fans who share your hobby. I've discussed the idea of a MCGS blog with Cathy Gowdy who has shared my idea with the Board. To help us determine if the MCGS wants to have our own blog, I've started a test blog for the Marin County Genealogical Society at --> http://maringensoc.blogspot.com/ to help decide if a blog will be of value and interest to MCGS Members and other researchers. The blog has many features not available on our mail list. For example: - You can post a message (comment) in "html" format and you can add links within your message. - You can post a comment to any message. - Messages (comments) to each message are kept together so it's easy to follow a new message (comment). - You can post pictures and videos (limit in size). There are many other features of a blog so please test it out to see what you think. You can leave your comments about the new blog on the blog itself or you can send them directly to me at genepenn1@gmail.com.

Those who are researching UK ancestors may be interested to know that the 1911 UK census is available on-line at http://www.1911census.co.uk/ The bad news is that it is pay-per-view through findmypast.com. The cheapest option costs 6.95 pound sterling for 60 credits. Each transcript needs 10 credits. Does anyone know whether the Family History Center has a subscription to this website? Vernon Smith
Hi Cathy, Just got back from grandparenting in Las Vegas to find a shock! You are much too young for a heart attack, I thought, but evidently not! Glad you were able to get to the hospital fast and that they could give you a stent (stint?) Will call before visiting. We have to talk about the contest, too.
