Two different entities and both are searchable. Posting to one does not preclude posting to the other. At GenConnect you retain "ownership" of the document. You could ask that it be removed for instance. At Archives you are "donating" the transcription to the Archives project. (Joe will correct me if I'm wrong I'm sure!*G* I see the Archives project as a repository of larger databases such as county marriage records, local histories, town reports, church histories, cemetery records, census, city directories,etc. Check out some of the information like the History of Bucks Co (PA) that is currently being placed in the GenWeb Archives (thank you Joe, it's great reading!)Or check out: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/va/augusta.htm They've put up "Chalkley's Chronicles"...all 1800 pages! Individual wills, deeds, obits, etc., while most likely welcome, are easier to handle at the level of individual imput; ie. GenConnect Board. The person who has the will, deed, etc. just types it in (or copy/pastes) hits submit and voila! it's on the web. The imput into the archives is a little more complicated and involves getting the information to the Archives manager, formatting it for the web and uploading it to the archives. Obviously if you had a group of 10 wills for one family (and perhaps other supporting documentation) you might wish to contact the Archives manager to see if it would be appropriate to have them included in the archives. I could have the whole of this wrong but that's how I currently understand it! Pat
