Debby, If you go to Rootsweb's mailing list site at http://lists.rootsweb.com/, you'll find all sorts of lists that you can subscribe to. The third box has the two-letter abbreviations for each state, so click on "PA". Scroll down to "Counties, Bureaus and Districts" Punxatawney is in Jefferson County, so click on that. The link will take you to where you can subscribe to PAJEFFER-L. Just follow the instructions. But don't stop there! Go back to http://lists.rootsweb.com/ and check out the surname lists. You're sure to find one that you'd like to join. There are also how-to lists, even one for newbie genealogists! Jeanne
