On this occasion, I do hope you are wrong Facebook is okay for some things but not a patch on the lists Remember anything posted to a facebook page is gone and forgotten almost as soon as its posted, and only members can search a groups archives assuming they know the group exists in the first place Unlike rootsweb lists and boards where anyone can search all the millions of previous posts And they can be found with a google search The knowledge of list subscribers far outweighs any facebook group I have seen to date and I am a member of quite a few ;-) Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 27-Oct-16 11:11 AM, elizgh@btinternet.com wrote: > Always the peacemaker Nivard !!!!
