For almost 20 years we operated a Lovelock Mailing
List, which was hosted for free on the RootsWeb server.
Ancestry, who had acquired the RootsWeb operation in 2000,
announced on 7 January 2020 that all Rootsweb Mailing Lists
would be terminated on 2 March 2020.
We therefore established a new, free, messaging
facility by creating a Group at 'groups.io', in common with
other operators of former RootsWeb Lists. This will allow
ongoing discussion of all matters of interest to Lovelock
researchers.
- If you wish to join our new group go to lovelock group and then click on the '+ Join This Group' link at the bottom left. You will then need to enter your e-Mail address and click 'Submit'. In response you will receive an e-Mail inviting you to confirm and activate your membership.
- Alternatively you can send an empty message to lovelock+subscribe@groups.io
and await a response.
Once you have joined you will be able to send
your messages to lovelock@groups.io. In all cases the
rules require that your first message will be moderated, so will
not be sent to the rest of the group immediately.
'RootsWeb' Mailing List Archives |
In their message of 7 January 2020 Ancestry declared that after 2 March 2020 Mailing List Archives would remain available and searchable on RootsWeb. This link will take you to the Lovelock Archive, but you should be aware that the Search facility that appears to be presented seems to be totally ineffective. In that case whatever you had intended to search for may mean scrolling through page after page in the hope of spotting it. Furthermore, we are of course unable to predict how long this archive facility will remain available. If you do embark on a search please bear in mind that messages sent in December 2016 have apparently been lost by Ancestry, although they have never admitted as such, nor replied to any requests for restoration of those messages.
