ALL USERS: Write about the surnames you are researching --> use the internet to your advantage
Dear members,
The more journals you submit here via FamilyTreeCircles the more you will increase your chances of another descendant or researcher contacting you. {Flood the internet with your info.}
Just as an example, to pick one of the more obscure names from my family tree by googling on the internet and seeing what comes up:-
G o o g l e GREATBATCH GENEALOGY
and you will see that it took .22 of a second out of 1,030 possible search results to come up with FamilyTreeCircles as the second search listing.
Make sure you have your subject headings as being appropriate, i.e.
Looking for GREATBATCH family of Sussex, England
so SURNAME, location and country.... then include your known details in body of journal. It is so frustrating to see a possible connection to your family tree and then only have a subject heading and no data.
Good luck,
EDITOR.
