WORLDCONNECT TIP:
CONTACTING THE GEDCOM SUBMITTER



While searching WorldConnect http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/ you find an entry for your ancestor in someone else's GEDCOM. You wish to contact the submitter to share additional information, correct an error, or perhaps just touch base. What is the best way to accomplish this?

At the top of every page of a file there is a link to the e-mail address of the database owner. Click on the link to send a note. In addition, you can add a Post-em directly to the entry of interest. If the GEDCOM owner has selected this option, she will be notified by e-mail when a Post-em is added to her file. See http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/tips/tip-03.html

Make certain that your ancestors are presented as you want them to be -- submit your GEDCOM to WORLDCONNECT.
