Maryland Mailing Lists
Location Mailing Lists are those that pertain to a
specific locale. Some of the lists are state-wide, some
county-wide. There are even mailing lists for
genealogical information relative to a specific city. If
your research is place-specific, either in a U.S. state
or a foreign country, these are the lists to join.
As
far as posting guidelines, each list has its own rules,
but generally common sense prevails. You are requested
to post messages which are on-topic. For example, if you
join a mailing list whose topic is Shelby County,
Indiana, post messages about your ancestors and research
in Shelby County, not New Orleans.
Next,
be polite. We genealogists tend to be a polite bunch,
but the occasional odd duck does appear. If someone
posts an offensive message, just contact the list
administrator and let them deal with any problem. Carry
on personal correspondence with other group members
off-list, via e-mail, if what you have to say is only of
interest to you and the other person.
When
you subscribe to a mailing list you will automatically
receive an e-mail detailing any rules regarding posting
to the list, plus information on how to unsubscribe.
Make sure you keep this initial e-mail, otherwise if you
want to unsubscribe, you won't remember how.
When
you join mailing lists, the chances are very good that
someone on the list will be researching one of your
surnames, or one of the locations your ancestors lived,
i.e. a particular county or country of origin. Mailing
lists optimize your chances for success. Many
researchers have made the most progress in climbing
their family tree thanks to mailing lists.
