    2. Gail Steckel
    3. Dear Listers: This is at least the 2nd message where I've seen a 'thank you' posted but never saw the actual response. This leads me to believe that info is being sent privately to a poster, circumventing the list. This is not good! It does not get saved into our archives! To all lookup volunteers: Please make sure you respond with any and all info to the list (as well as the poster). It is important that any info found gets into our archives - for the sake of future researchers. If someone asks you to send an image privately, that's fine, but make sure you transcribe what's on that image and send it to the list. Technically, there is a rule for Rootsweb lists that prohibits a poster from privately contacting a list 'volunteer' (this is mainly to ensure that our volunteers don't get harassed). However, from my viewpoint, as long as no one is bothered AND all the found info gets posted to the list, I let this rule slide. For those who take the time to search/browse our archives, you will see how important it is to post all found info to the list for inclusion in the archives.

    3. A good question. You can do a search of our list archives this way: Go to Rootsweb.com Under the title Mailing Lists, select "Interactive Search" You will then need to type in our list name - just put pa-census-lookup (that's all) you will then be taken to a search page where you can do a search of each year's submission of posts. If you are just searching for a surname, type that in the box. If you are searching for a full name, put it in quotes (as in "John Smith") - then the search engine will look for those two words together. If you think maybe the person might appear with a middle initial, then you must search like this: john AND smith the word in CAPS is a command, and tells the search engine to look for messages that contain both the word john and smith but not necessarily side by side. You can expand this...say you want a John Smith in Luzerne County, you can type: john AND smith AND luzerne only the commands should be in caps (example: john OR Robert AND smith AND luzerne You must do this for each year's posts. NOTE: If you DO take time to browse the archives (not the Interactive Search above, but by selecting Threaded Archives), you will see very quickly why we stress the importance of the subject line. ALL messages with the same subject line are placed together, so if you see one post with the subject line "1900/Luzerne/Smith" all posts that relate to that subject are in one location. I encourage every list member to both browse and search our archives....we have about 5 year's worth of posts there and you just might find that someone else has researched your line during the past 5 or so years.....

    2. Gail Steckel
    3. I've received several requests for reminders to be issued, so here it is. Heads up, everyone - these are important if you want to get an answer to your question! Please properly fill out your subject line. It should contain the following - and ONLY the following! Year / County / Surname All other info (and include as much as you know or suspect!) should go in the message body. The subject line is important for 2 reasons: 1) list members can see at a glance what you're looking for and will know right away if they can help you or not. If they can't, they needn't waste time opening and reading your message; if they can, this info helps them relocate your message in their inbox when they're ready to answer you. Secondly, when you get an answer and you're re-posting for a followup question, click on that answer you received and then hit "reply to all" - this keeps all of your requests and their responses in one email so that it is easy for the researcher to refresh his/her memory as to the details of your request. It also keeps others from asking you to repeat data and keeps you from having to retype info over and over. It keeps all of the info on that surname neatly in one "thread." This is important because our lookup volunteers will not remember your request from one day to the next - there are just too many on this list (actually, things are slow right now - I'm used to seeing 40 to 60 requests a day; nevertheless.....). Also, this makes our archives tidier and easier to browse. Remember, every post is archived and therefore searchable and browseable. To search our archives (and I encourage everyone to do this), go to www.rootsweb.com, select "Threaded Archives" and then type in the box: pa-census-lookup Thirdly, remember that our lookup 'volunteers' are just listmembers who feel like doing some investigating for you. They do not "sign up" to be a volunteer - they are just listmembers like you who decide to help someone else out because they have the time or the resources. To those who do volunteer: please remember to respond to the list and not just to the person privately. If someone wants an image sent, that must be done privately since Rootsweb allows no attachments. However, the data contained in that image should be sent to the list to be archived and thus benefit researchers in the future. While I discourage private requests (emailing a request to a specific lookup volunteer only), I find I often break my own rule - however, I always send the found info to both the requested AND the list, for the sake of the archives. So, volunteers, if you do respond to a private request, make sure you answer to both that person and the list. I will not issue a reminder about manners because we already have such a wonderful, pleasant, polite group on our list!
