Welcome to the Glamorgan List

Rootsweb Glamorgan Genealogy Mailing List

Come and enjoy! Find or share information on your ancestors whilst chatting amongst friends!

Which area of Wales does this List cover? - The County of Glamorgan in South Wales, United Kingdom.

The purpose of the List is for genealogical, family history and local history discussion.

List members are a bit like an extended family on our Glamorgan Rootsweb Mailing List. On a personal note, I have made many friends via the Lists and I have also been fortunate in finding many cousins through the exchange of genealogical interests, many of whom I have been very pleased to meet.

You will find a wealth of friendly, informative and knowledgeable members on the List, who are only too willing to help you in your research.

Some members contribute such a lot and get involved with finding the solution when you have become stuck with your family research. Often a hunt for a solution interests the list and a volume of effort is brought about in an endeavour to solve a problem for someone. Members give of their knowledge, time and energy freely and we are all the better for it. Some members prefer just to read the messages and learn from them. Some stay awhile and leave, but mostly there are hundreds of members who stay. All you need to do to join any Rootsweb Mailing List is an internet connection and the willingness to sign up and participate.

We hope you join and enjoy the Glamorgan list and find it both interesting and informative. Please remember every message you send to the list is archived and stored on the Rootsweb computers who provide this mailing list for our use, free of charge.

If you wish to subscribe to the Glamorgan Mailing List please send a message that contains in the 'Subject' box and in the body of the message ( which is where text is written ) the command "subscribe" (without the apostrophes) and absolutely no additional text.

A suggestion:- make a new folder in your Mail programme and call this ROOTS or something you will remember, and add to this any of the subscription welcome notices that you will receive after subscribing to a Mailing List. You will be surprised how useful this is and you will never need to ask how to subscribe and unsubscribe from Mailing Lists in future.
