Our Website 2.0

A note to subscribers...
(all two of you...)

If you follow us on Facebook, Posterous or Networked Blogs or have been checking on me, you have noticed our sites have been disabled.  By now, you already know that the EVIL Twitter has purchased Posterous and so all of the blogs are no longer available.  It was my favorite blogging spot.  So we are trimming the access to my genealogical ramblings to my blogger posts and my official website 2.0 and we hope to relaunch soon.

As a preview:

African American Genealogy with Fallon Green will now be home to a massive database of links dealing specifically with genealogy in Beaufort County.

Bottomline:  I will see you soon! Hopefully we can generate the same amount of buzz we had on Facebook, there as well.
