So what you're suggesting, Sharyl, is that we post pertinent "obit, will,
marriage, birth, etc. submissions" to the site and to the list?

If so, what if we have already done so? I posted several obits in April,
and perhaps other times. It seems that although I didn't submit them to the
list, they appeared anyway. So should I still do this again?

Can anyone tell me whether the current state of retrieving information on
the Web site is temporary or permanent? And if it is permanent, how do we
retrieve information? I don't understand why Rootsweb isn't sending out
messages explaining their changes. When I click on a category on the Web
site, I go to an unfamiliar page that I just cannot seem to navigate. Has
anybody had any luck?
Any information they can share?

Kathy
