    3. Jan have you submitted your site to the search engines? You can go through Web Site Garage located at http://www.websitegarage.com/jayde/ where they have an area to submit your site to 16 search engines. The other thing you can do is within your <head></head> tags is to insert what is known as Meta Tags. You can also find out about Meta Tags at the above URL.

    3. Hi all, As Mary says, this is important to us. Please see the new NCGenWeb page at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncgenweb/ I believe the North Carolina CCs will be choosing a new SC soon. Unfortunately Diane did not consult with her CCs nor did she have an assistant SC to step in. As is everyone, I am surprised and saddened by Diane's sudden departure. I hope everything is okay with her.

    1. Re: [TNGEN-L] Resignation of Diane Miller
    2. Bridgett Smith

    3. For those folks who don't wish to read anymore regarding this subject you can hit delete now <G>. I am trying to get another list going so discussions of this type can be done on that list, leaving this list open for announcements, etc. The new list will be optional as to subscribing to it. It is always sad when a State Coordinator leaves the project for whatever reason. I had nothing but respect for Diane -- However, I think that her notifying her cc's the same time she notified the rest of us and the board that she quit was a selfish act and am saddened by it. It showed a "me" attitude that no State Coordinator should have. Am glad to see that several CC's of the NCGenWeb have pulled together and have gotten their project up and running again. Let's wish them well in their endeavors. Bridgett On 6 Jul 98 at 9:55, George Waller, wrote: > Hi all, > As Mary says, this is important to us.

    1. [TNGEN-L] Union County Chatroom

    3. Well the chatroom is actually taking off now. I was a bit discouraged with it but it seems to be paying off. My netizens actually used it for a group meeting for the first time. Do any of you remember the surname Bratcher on any of your pages? There is a lady on my page who needs to find that surname in 1800's Tennessee. It only comes up once in her tree and she just wants to know where her ancestors wife came from. I can't find a Bratcher for her East of NC. Chip Union County TnGenWeb
