TSFA, Saw this in the NEHGS Newsletter and thought it might be of some interest. Tom -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Highlight Your Family Association in the NEHGS eNews Many genealogists are members of family associations and believe them to be an integral part of their research efforts. Finding cousins, learning the history of a particular family, sharing genealogical information with others, and social interaction are some of the many reasons why genealogists create and join family associations. As part of an enhanced and ongoing effort to collaborate with genealogical and historical organizations, NEHGS would like to periodically highlight family associations in the eNews. We will publish a description of a particular association, cite the association's homepage, and include resources available at NEHGS for that particular family. In return, we ask that your association include an article provided by us about NEHGS in your newsletter. This text would include some basic information about the Society as well as the resources available for your association's surname. Since newsletter editors are often looking for content to fill the pages, it could make your newsletter editor very happy. It seems like a win/win situation to us! If you would like to be part of the NEHGS family association partnership, please email Laura Prescott at lgprescott@nehgs.org for specific information. We have also added a new section for family associations within the "Links" pages of the website: www.newenglandancestors.org/links/Default.asp?page_id=703&attrib1=1&seq_num=4. If you would like a link to your family association website listed on the page, please email dmcglinn@nehgs.org with the official association name and the URL. If you wish, you may also include a very brief description of the association (fifty words or less). As before, we hope you'll reciprocate and include a link to www.NewEnglandAncestors.org and information about the Society on your website. We encourage you to add a link to NEHGS to your website. The correct URL is http://www.NewEnglandAncestors.org. This is a good time to re-check your existing link to NEHGS if you've had it on your website for awhile. Please be sure you are no longer linked to our old address at www.nehgs.org. >
