Facebook has become a very popular resource for genealogy research. So an new mailing list and message board are available. List: http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/other/Internet_Help/FACEBOOK-GENEALOGY.html Board: http://boards.ancestry.com/topics.researchresources.facebookgen/mb.ashx I hope that those who find Facebook as a valuable resource will share the experience with others. Thanks, Joan Asche List/Board Admin

Hi Joan I am very much a sceptic regarding facebook or twitter for that matter But am always looking for fresh avenues for research So far facebook has left me very cold so will be interested how others use it The lists appear to be at an all time low with very few posts lately, I suspect more due to the plethora of information now available online than the likes of facebook or twitter but am open to being convinced they are useful Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 22/07/2012 14:50, JLA wrote: > Facebook has become a very popular resource for genealogy research. > > So an new mailing list and message board are available. > > List: http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/other/Internet_Help/FACEBOOK-GENEALOGY.html > > Board: http://boards.ancestry.com/topics.researchresources.facebookgen/mb.ashx > > I hope that those who find Facebook as a valuable resource will share > the experience with others. > > Thanks, > > Joan Asche > List/Board Admin
