What is this all about? |
This website is designed to inform people about Webster County and help people sign up for the Webster County, Iowa mailing list on Rootsweb. The list is called "iawebste". |
How to Subscribe |
To join the list, simply send an email with the word "subscribe" in the body (main part) of the email. Send the email to iawebste-L-request@rootsweb.com for the list mode or iawebste-D-request@rootsweb.com" for the digest mode. You will receive an automatic confirmation that will tell you you have successfully subscribed. This is the best way to subscribe to this list. If you send me, the list administrator, an email I will not subscribe you unless you tell me if you want the list or digest mode. In addition, I don't have time to check my email and take care of things like this every day. It could be 2-3 days before I would have time to add a subscriber manually. Trust me, this way is much faster and more reliable. |
What's the difference between IAWEBSTE-L AND IAWEBSTE-D? |
IAWEBSTE-L@ROOTSWEB.COM is the list mode where you receive every single email, as it comes. IAWEBSTE-D@ROOTSWEB.COM is the digest form. Several emails will be "bundled" together into one email. As this list is not currently very active, it could be several days before you receive an email from the list. |
Who am I and Why am I doing this? |
My name is Carol Foltz and I live in Fort Dodge, the county seat of Webster County. I found out in 1999 that my mother's great-grandparents had just moved here before the 1880 federal census (wasn't that considerate of them?). There have been members of this family in this county ever since. My parents, sister & I moved here in 1975 and I attended high school here. I left in 1981 but moved back in 1996.I became the listowner for IAWEBSTE-L in December 1999. This was my first list, followed by FOLTZ-L. I am not planning to take on any more lists at this time. :-) |
