This week I was contacted by a former Archivist with the University of Georgia Libraries who fully understands the importance of preserving original documents, care and handling thereof. I shared with her how several years ago I had the privilege in the company of my brother, to see, the discovery of the finest known example of a work - that prior to that point only the rare book division of a library in Boston had the only known copy in existance. This book was 'stored' in an open faced dress box in this woman's attic! What a thrill it was to see first hand a booklet published in 1860, in Griffin, only aged by 140 years of storage - in as pristine a condition as one could imagine and to be dumbfounded as to how it was stored. The lady was gracious enough to allow my brother to photocopy this booklet - (the one in Boston too fragile to even photocopy) - to use in his doctoral work along with an original note dated 1849, wherein a woman told her intended that most likely her father would give them a couple of slaves as a dowry. I writing to find out your thoughts on places for persons to contribute original documents that can not only be used for research but will be available for the public at large to view. In the last year or so, I've had delivered to my inbox copies of two really neat original documents - - muster roll of an Illinois unit, names of soldiers, rank, pay, if they had a horse or mule - that served in the Black Hawk War (Crawford County) - today - list of scholars, age, study, number of days attended for the school term in a particular township (yet to be determined which one) for Feb. 1857. Additionally a copy of a note telling of the demise of the instructor in early May of that same year in Dodge Co., WI (Richland County) What I'd like to do is let the contributors know and encourage them to consider donating or loaning these documents to a repository that can perserve them.

Earlier this week I passed on a message that a fellow by the name of Mike Romaine was offering to do lookups in the "History of Northern Wisconsin, 1881" (see details of the book below). Well, Mike is still standing by his offer (and is very happy with the responses that he has received from his offer thus far), but he needs to let you all know that his email address is changing from mailto:[email protected] to mailto:[email protected] . He apologizes for having to make this change so early in the game, but says he does not make a common practice of changing ISPs so this one will probably 'stick' for a while. He's still hoping to be of assistance to those of you who coordinate the counties that are covered in this book. If you have an interest in obtaining this information, please contact him directly. Thanks! Just passing the info along, Nance BOOK DETAILS: History of Northern Wisconsin: containing an account of its settlement, growth, development, and resources, an extensive sketch of its counties, cities, towns and villages, their improvements, industries, manufactories, biographical sketches, portraits of prominent men and early settlers, views of , seats, etc. Author: unknown, Chicago, 1881 Sections include: Maps General history - Adams, Ashland, Barron, Bayfield, Brown, Buffalo, Burnett, Calumet, Chippewa, Clark, Door, Douglas, Dunn, Eau Claire, Green Lake, Juneau, Jackson, Kewaunee, Lincoln, Langlade, La Crosse, Manitowoc & Marathon Counties.

For those of you who have been notified that individuals are having problems accessing the FTP records filed on rootsweb in the USGenWeb Archives, here is something to note. Please feel free to pass it on to your Mailing Lists. R/S MAK --- James wrote: Marcia, I just figured out my problem downloading the FTP cemetery pages on the Monroe Co. site! Here is one to keep for future reference! I connect to the internet using a DSL Cable modem high speed connection, my operating system on my computer is Microsoft Windows XP, and my web browser is Microsoft Internet Explorer 6. My problem was that I couldn't access FTP sites and make downloads. Answer- In the "Internet Options" folder of Internet Explorer there is an "Advanced" tab. There are many options that can be checked on or off on the advanced page. Under the "Browsing" heading of that section is a box that must be checked on if using a firewall or DSL connection. It reads, "Use passive FTP(for firewall and DSL modem compatability)." I have had no problems since turning on this feature, maybe this will help someone else who is ripping out their hair!

Tina and all, My preference would be for WIGEN-L to remain archived. Since its main concern is the business of the WIGenWeb Project, it is important for a record to be kept that is accessible to all WIGenWeb members. A list archive is the simplist way to do that, since the computers do it for us. The archive has been very useful to me on several occasions when I needed to refer to a message that I had already deleted from my inbox, or that was for some reason culled out by the spam filter my mail service uses. --- Deana Hipke Volunteer County Coordinator Marinette County WIGenWeb Project Genealogy and Local History http://rootsweb.com/~wimarine --------- Original Message --------- DATE: Tue, 11 Nov 2003 10:46:12 From: "Tina S Vickery" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: >Hi all, > >I asked the archive accessibility question of Rootsweb.

MAK- I was just curious as if it is correct we are to be subbed in D-Mode or L-Mode one would be getting all messages and then what would the purpose be? I was not thinking about emails bouncing when I asked. I may not have worded my question in the correct way - I wasn't thinking so much of what we might say (posed the question as an open thought) - but more toward what would be the interest to others in our mallist. I know this has been stated before but what is the purpose of this maillist? Is it to provide a venue for county/state coordinators to share information and assist each other and for the use by the state coordinators to forward information from the USGenWeb.

Mak doesn't "unsub". With her travels, at times she bounces from the list ... as others of you do. I resub her when I see it, as I do others. Debie, digest is a good alternative for remaining subbed as required, while still cutting down on the traffic at times.
