Steven, 

I just wanted to say that I support what you are doing. The information
that you list is relevant to many searches. I imagine that you are
intelligent enough to know this, otherwise, you would not go to such
great effort to furnish this info for others to share. 

I understand that many 'new' genealogist do not understand the variety
of sources that exist. So, be patient.

I think a person worried about the amount of messages you send is more
worried about quanity than quality. If there were 300 messages all on
various SMITHs, then that too is acceptable. Just because I can not use
the info does not mean that I have to be closed minded and selfish and
complain about it. I think those of us that have found the joy in
finding a lost relative wish to share that joy with others and hope for
others success in their searches. 

Happy Hunting!
