Just a reminder about submissions, while we love them, if it information that can be posted on one of our boards, bios/obits/deeds/pension/wills/bibles/ please send direct to MAK (makkuehl@yahoo.com) and include your name as you desire for it to appear! You will be listed as the submitter for the post to the board, and when it posts, it automatically posts to the mailing list. If it is posted to the mailing list first, we get a "double" dose... The reason for doing it this way, is there are TWO separate search engines, ran my two different projects, one for the boards maintained by USGenCONNECT, and one for the Mailing Archives... Your contributions are extremely valuable to continue our ability to provide FREE data to the genealogy community... so it is important to make it available on all the WoodCoWI search engines... For those of you who are getting this single message and are worried about volume of messages received, there is a digest version of the Mailing List available... It cuts down on message traffic, but you still get all the messages... Thank you for your understanding in these matters.
