RESEARCH HELP |
There is a Search Engine on this site.....but remember it will ONLY cover what is
actually ON this site!
There was a need for people to be able to contribute cemetery, wills, deeds, info in a simple
format. So every county was set-up with an Archives Page and another volunteer to manage these files.
Virginia Crilley is File Manager for Muscogee County.
You'll find ALL the cemeteries that we're working on there. There are also some Church Histories,
Bible Records, etc. There is a Search Engine on this page . . (scroll down to the bottom)...which
covers ALL the Archives in Georgia (depending on how you "check" it) or just Muscogee County itself.
MUSCOGEE (2228) (or whatever number is current) This is the number of
messages posted on this board. This gives you an idea of how active this county board has
been. To Search Archives Type in GAMUSCOG
Select YEAR. SO WE HAVE 4 DIFFERENT SEARCH ENGINES TO USE, so far!! Web page, Archives
page, Ancestry/Rootsweb Page, and Mailing List Rootsweb - Most people
think that Rootsweb and USGenWeb are the same. They're not. Rootsweb is
the Server and is a business and recently merged with Ancestry.com. USGenWeb is
an organization of volunteers that is given free space on Rootsweb Server.
But to help out, Rootsweb has also created
"Resource Pages"
Another Search Engine This is not a USGenWeb Search engine, but does list all the Search Engines available through Rootsweb.

"The messages on this Board are posted on GAMUSCOG-L" (Not all
Boards have their County Mailing Lists automatically sent to the County Lists)
We feel this is the way to get the best exposure for your questions.
POST a NEW Message. Click here and you can post.
Remember to use a subject line that is specific for your message, i.e. Jones Family 1812
ADD BOARD to your FAVORITES
If you research here often, that is a good thing to do. It works almost like a
bookmark.
ADD BOARD to Notification
You may or may not want to do this. This will notify you every time that a
message is posted here. It will not contain the "body" of the
message though. IF you are on the Muscogee County Mailing List, you'll be
getting the entire message.
LINKS and ANNOUNCEMENTS
This tells you the Message Board Manager. Other specific news about the county
may be listed there.
VIEW MESSAGE TYPE
Click on the arrow, and see all the options, i.e. obituary, query, bible.
(Remember though that the person posting the material must also have used this
option. So just in case I would visit the Query boards, as that is the
default posting area)
LISTED BY
You can choose if you prefer by Date or by "thread" (replies under
original message)
REPLYING TO A MESSAGE
You can respond right on-line to the message. IF you'd rather contact the
poster privately, you can click on their name. You will see ALL the messages that
they have posted, and where these messages are located. This covers all counties.
4) Mailing Lists - This is probably the best known part! And also the place
where most people are comfortable posting their information.
***The important thing is to have the SUBJECT line pertinent to the subject of
the message***
...as that is how that Search Engine is set up.
Type in Cemetery.... and you'll see all the messages that we've been
posting on the Cemeteries. Click on FULL, you'll get the actual message sent.
