    3. Hi Jerry,  Seems as though the GenWeb organization is pretty much a thing of the past, certainly not anything like it was back in the day you cared for many of the county pages.  Most of the county pages are still "up", but no longer active.  Some of the materials were moved to local genealogy society sites.  The old Rootsweb mail lists are used very little.  A shame that such a wonderful resource has gone by the way. I've heard from some of the "ex-county coordinators" that Ancestry.com had pilfered some of the data, and other coordinators say that the advertising banners required by Ancestry.com, on the pages were too intrusive.  Whatever the reasons, a wonderful resource is mostly a thing of the past.  I thank you for your many contributions and efforts over the past years.
