If you're new to computers or genealogy, this is the place for you. |
|
Gen-Newbie started as an electronic mailing list for people who were new to computers and/or genealogy, to ask questions, help others, and generally share information, research techniques, brick walls, and computer/genealogy woes. We began, officially, on October 31, 1996, as an offshoot of the renowned Roots-L. Since then we have gained over 1,000 members, a unique community that supports the honest and open newbie questions in a flame-free, tolerant atmosphere concerning genealogy/computers. |

During the first few months of Gen-Newbie, one of our members, Jean Legried, offered to publish 6 lessons for those who were just beginning in genealogy. Jean is a Certified Genealogical Records Specialist, and her lessons are thorough, easy to understand, and always useful. They are, however, Jean's lessons, so please check with her before re-publishing them for any reason. Let's get started with Jean.

Hi you all, the mailman software doesn't make life
easy. Although the the L and D have been dropped
from the list addresses, for someone to subscribe
in Digest mode they will need to send the request
to [email protected] so the D is
still needed to SUB (or UNSUB) to a list in digest
mode but not for anything else. Remember that the same
address canNOT be subbed to both the list and
digest versions.
