Hi, Rosemary, You're welcome and thank you, too, for sharing info on our Dunn families. I echo your view of it and would gladly pay higher dues in support of TIGS and the great work it does which has helped me in surprising ways! The knowledge base is building and building and for those of us who don't live near Troy, TIGS' web site with its databases and list-serv make progress much more attainable and new connections much more likely Mary Lee Dunn -----Original Message----- From: Rosemary Kopczynski <[email protected]> To: ny-troy-irish-gensoc <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Jul 7, 2012 8:25 pm Subject: Re: [NY-TROY-IRISH-GENSOC] dues I agree with Jim about raising the dues. I live on Long Island but joined TIGS because of my interest in researching my family (thank you Mary Lee Dunn). I am so appreciative of all the work that is done by volunteers that people, like myself, benefit from. I would gladly pay $20-25 per year to help support this wonderful organization.

Is TIGS registered as a non profit? Now for a suggestion. When a person joins they must be somehow entered into the computer. If we use a spread sheet then there is a number next to our name. If we published a list with dues status then we would know our status regarding dues. Another suggestion, if we are not a non profit could we become one. That way folks that would like to donate to the cause could. Last suggestion. Raise our dues. If that isn't a popular idea then raise our dues and give credits to those that do so much work.
