I believe what she is saying is to post the state in which you are researching a person. For example: I am researching John Smith in Smith County. DO NOT do this. Instead post this: I am researching John Smith in Smith County, Kentucky. By stating what state you are researching will help others researching that name and state. This will then hopefully connect you with a cousin.
