Connie:
What I did was simply export out a text file of the Ahnantafels for
my four grandparents' ancestors. Since my grandparents (and all of
their ancestors) are no longer living, there are no living people in
the file. I think what is of interest to others in the group would
be back a couple centuries at least so leaving out the last century
is not a big deal.

I've just been avoiding doing it because I don't know how to and I
thought it would take up a considerable amount of time to figure it
out.
I do lots with computers, but in all my years of research I have
never
uploaded genealogy files! (Believe it or not!) Also, I have many
living
individuals on my tree & don't know how to block them. Finally, I
have
only 1 tree that includes everyone and it's terribly outdated. I
know
this is probably not the best way to do things, but I used the
software
at the beginning to simply help me sort people. Once I got so many
others, I got so far behind in data entry that the tree I have is
years
behind my current information. Truth is, I've been working so
deeply on
the extractions and on Spanish research in Pamplona, that I've
totally
neglected updating my tree.
Nonetheless, I promise to make a serious effort this month to get
all
this done. I'm assuming you've provided an instruction page
somewhere
on how to get this done and I will do my best to get through it.
Thanks for reminding me!

Subject: [ranchos] Ax List: First Notice - doi: January 31, 2006--
happy
new year!
Happy New Year. . .as is the tradition I'm going to start 2006 off
right. You all probably know that I run a tight ship when it comes
to
the very basics of this group and the rediculously easy two
requirements: 1) do you own work and 2) Submit a representative
tree to
the group from our target area.
[no
gedcoms or
living individuals in the tree].
Well periodically I send out my Ax list. The Ax list is those folks
that
have joined but haven't submitted their genealogies. For the first
few
notices I don't get specific I figure you know who you are so let
it be
just a notice. Later I'll get specific and as the "Ax Day" (January
31,
2006) draws near you will definitely know you are about to be cut
from
the list.
Big Secret: If you want to be spared the Ax please communicate with
me
(makas@n...). . .thats right just toss me an email and say, "Orale
Chavo, let me tell you whats going on with me. I am swamped and
need
more time, say another 6 months." My answer to a simple request like
that would be a simple, "Pues suguro que si. pero despues de
7/31/2006
you're going to be in a situation I can't remedy. So I'd suggest
you get
me "something" representative of your ties to our area of research
by
then, okay primo."
Now there are a couple of people in the group that I've let in
because
they have "strong" feelings that they are tied to our area but
haven't
actually made the connection. These cases are special exceptions
and all
I would ask is that they continue trying to make the connection.
I guess the whole point of this is stagnancy. I don't want folks to
be
stagnant. . .if we call ourselves "serious" researchers, well I
don't
think we would be doing nothing to advance our work. Well now that
brings me to a new requirement I'm thinking of adding. Well
probably not
a requirement but a suggestion. I think that everyone should
occassionally add a little something to their "files" or "online
work"
(links). I for one am seriously guilty and need to resubmit all
my .rtf
files as the ones currently submitted have had much more work done
to
them.
Anyway that last one is not a requirement of the group but like I
said a
suggestion, lets have it a stong suggestion.
thanks,
