The study of Genealogy and Family History fall into two different categories.It would be less time consuming for lineage researchers too have two different boards. One for Genealogy,which is the study of lineage. One for Family history which is time periods and how they lived. The history is very interesting and i like to have it included but each has it's own place. This would free things up for other people to feel free to post on each board without offending someone else.

I agree. I believe that for the efficiency of some and the pleasure of others, we need to have two lists: one for genealogy/lineage and another for family history.
