Subject: [OSMUN] New Resource for OSMUN List


> Hi, Everyone,
>
> All of us on the OSMUN List have been very quiet lately! I want to
> tell you about a new resource that we have that should prove to be very
> useful to us all. We have seven GenConnect Boards at RootsWeb where we
can > post Queries, Bible Records, Biographies, Deeds, Pensions, Wills, and
> Obituaries that relate to OSMUN families. RootsWeb recently
> announced that the mailing list owners can now gateway their lists to the
> boards, so that every post to the boards will automatically be posted to
> the mailing list as well. I thought it would be a good idea for the
> OSMUN list to participate in this program, so I have set up gateways
> from all 7 boards to the list. Postings to the boards will be identified
> as such when they appear on the list, and the postings will include a URL.
> To respond to messages from the board, click on the URL, post your
> response, and the response will appear both on the board and on the list.
> Messages coming from the boards may or may not be from a list subscriber,
> so it is best to respond to them through the boards. To respond to
> messages from the list the instructions remain the same as
before.....click
> on "reply to all" (in your mail program) to reply to the both the list and
> the sender (or, if you want the response to go only to the sender, click
on "reply").
>
> I hope that you will all take advantage of the boards, and will post the
> data for your families (and for other OSMUN families that you
> come across As I conduct research in various
> locales for my other families, I will extract any data I find about any
>OSMUN (and alternate spellings) families and will post what I find.
> Since we don't yet have separate boards for christenings, marriages, or
> census data; let's post this data to the Biography board, and if the
> separate boards ever become available, I will move the data. THE ONLY
> CAUTION IS THAT WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL TO NOT POST COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL IN

> At the end of this message, I will post the URLs for the separate boards,
> and the URL for the OSMUN resource page which has links for all of the
> boards (at the bottom of the page), and also has links for subscribing and
> unsubscribing. I also plan to set up tag lines with these URLs, that will
> appear at the bottom of postings to the OSMUN list. I will be the
> administrator for the boards, as well as for the list, so please direct
any of your questions about the boards to me.......and we will learn
together.
