Hi all! See you all at chat this evening! Also, if any of you have NOT received your voter ids, please contact me, and I will help you obtain them. Please remember to vote. This is *our* project, and your votes are important :-) Tina WIGenWeb Project Meetings Place: IRC server: irc.rootsweb.com (6667) Room: #USGW-WI Time: 9 PM EST Wednesdays http://www.rootsweb.com/~wigenweb/irc-chat.html

Hi everyone! Tonight I am announcing a new addition to the WIGenWeb Project. The BMD (Births, Marriages, & Deaths) Project for Wisconsin! The BMD Project was developed by Marceline Beem, Elizabeth Harris, and Elizabeth Ross. This project allows for birth, marriage and death records to be submitted by our visitors. The aim of the project is to allow visitors to submit data from family Bibles, church records, and other sources that aren't readily available as public records, as well as those that are available publicly. Wisconsin's pages are available at http://tn-3.rootsweb.com/~marce/bmd/search.cgi, and then double following the Wisconsin link. I hope you all explore and use this new added resource. My thanks to Marceline, Elizabeth and Elizabeth for making it available to the WIGenWeb Project. Tina

To all of you that had questions about the htdig. The problem was with space, and the htdig searches is back. There is still an issue with remote calls to it from individual pages, but it is expected to be fixed in a couple of days. Tina

I had to laugh. I am Wood and PortageCoWI CC. My favorite request was "I am starting a turtle farm, can you tell me if there are any sites for this market?" They found my CC bio which listed my pets, to include THREE TURTLES!!! HMMMMMMMMMM.

Hi: The Pierce County WIGenWeb project has undergone a facelift. Check it out at http://www.rootsweb.com/~wipierce Debbie Barrett http://www.rootsweb.com/~wipierce/ http://www.rootsweb.com/~nywashin/

Gee, lots of these requests sound like many I filter through daily--Green Lake County does not officially seem to have an official government/chamber of commerce web site, and being a popular tourist destination, I routinely get things like: What's the best campground? Where is the Amish auction being held this Saturday? Does (fill in the blank) have an indoor or outdoor swimming pool? Give me the addresses and phone numbers of all the realtors in (fill in the blank) What is the best local ISP in (fill in the blank) while I am there this summer? I am sure requests for hotel reservations will be coming soon! Makes me think I should start a travel agency. Anne Kasuboski
