TNGenWeb queries are down right now... Hi y'all, Billie and I (with a lot of help from our server guru) are upgrading the WebBBS program that supports the Knox County TNGenWeb Query board -- right now, the query board is down until we finish de-bugging the script. Don't give up on us -- I really think you'll like the results <g>. The query board will load MUCH faster -- and the search capabilities will be much improved. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience ;-) Rose-Anne (and Miz. Billie) Knox County, TNGenWeb http://www.knoxcotn.org/index.html ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 Jan 2001 08:55:48 -0500 From: "Billie R. McNamara" <knox@tngenweb.org> Subject: [KnoxCoTN] New! Sevier County obits message board If you look at the Sevier County TNGenWeb site today, you'll see a new feature! With the assistance of the TNGenWeb technical team, Rachel's added an Obituary Message Board where visitors can post obituaries of people with Sevier County connections (born there, died there, or resided there). Here's the URL: http://www.tngenweb.org/sevier/webbbs/obits/index.cgi Enjoy! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 09 Jan 2001 15:05:15 -0500 From: Niota <niota@preferred.com> Subject: [none] subscribe ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2001 10:52:53 -0600 From: "Rose-Anne Cunningham Bray" <knoxcotn@wdbj.net> Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Updates to Knox County TNGenWeb Query Board - on the road again! <g> Good morning, y'all! We've finished the software upgrade for the Knox Co. TNGenWeb Query system this morning -- please take it for a whirl! If you've not posted your "brick walls" lately, now's the time to do so! <g>. http://www.knoxcotn.org/webbbs/queries/index.cgi The query index list loads much, much faster now (only loads the past two months) -- however, if you'd like to individualize how many to display, just click the "Set Preferences" link! The much-improved "Search" feature can search all queries (the default is set for 2 months, so be sure to change that if you want to go back further), and can also search by "any" or "all" word(s) in the search phrase. Also, you can search for any messages (within the specified time frame) posted by an individual! For those who love/depend on "spell-check" before posting their queries -- we've got that, too! Time's a wastin' -- check it out! ;-)
Rose-Anne (and Miz. Billie) PS -- We still have a few more tricks up our sleeves - stay tuned <g>. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 11:55:36 -0500 From: "Billie R. McNamara" <knox@tngenweb.org> Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Southern RR log book transcribed Here's one conductor's log book for one month in 1904. It has a few names, but it's an neat little capsule of info on the train biz at that time. They sure did work the men to death! http://www.knoxcotn.org/business/srwy1904log.html ------------------------------ End of knoxcotn-digest V1 #167 ******************************
