HOW DO YOU POST?  Send an email to State@Pennsylvania-Gen.groups.io

WHAT SHOULD YOU POST?

  1. Questions about your ancestors.  Give as much detail as you can.

  2. Interesting history that is relevant to the list.

  3. Genealogy and family history conferences, even if they charge for admission.

  4. Genealogy societies should feel free to post about their society and their websites.

  5. Book reviews of genealogy books are reasonable to post.  A list of books is not, but sharing a good genealogy book you've found is a good idea.

  6. Links to personal blogs that are about genealogy.  They can be your blog or another.  Even if the blog has ads, that is not a problem.

  7. New collections on various genealogy sites that are relevant.  We don't want advertisements, but if you find an interesting collection on Ancestry, FamilySearch, Library of Congress, or some other site that has relevance to the list, let people know.

8. Posts about various places that are generally inaccessible to outsiders are allowed if information about services are clearly posted.

 WHAT SHOULD BE IN YOUR POST?

 1. An informative but concise subject line.

 2. When replying to a previous message, be sure to check that the intended recipient's address is showing in the Send To box of your email BEFORE clicking on SEND.

 3. Proofread and be sure you want your post public.  All posts go in the archives!
