    1. [NYNEWYOR] IGG/GGG Blocking of the One-Step Website
    2. Diane Jacobs
    3. As many of you are probably aware, the IGG and GGG websites have been blocking Steve Morse's One-Step site from accessing their data. This has been going on for about a month now, and it has meant that we genealogists have been deprived of the added value that Steve's site had to offer. For example, Steve's site allowed you to click on a link to obtain the corresponding bride once you found a groom in the NYC marriage records, and vice versa. His site reported an estimated year of birth on the result page for the NYC death records. And Steve's site lets you display more than just the 20 hits per page that IGG/GGG restrict you to. Well the good news is that the blockage has just been lifted. As least as far as the IGG site goes and I'm guessing that the GGG site will do the same shortly. So once again we can use Steve's site to do our searches of the IGG data. If you have any questions about this, please don't write to me but rather write to Steve directly. He is very good about answering email and his email address is at the top of his one-step website --- http://stevemorse.org. - Diane Jacobs Somerset, NJ
