Once upon a time about 4
years ago, I submitted some information to SurnameWeb, information that
was very important to me. In my opinion Dennis was very slow in
getting this information posted on the site. I wrote and asked him a
couple times, why? Unless you have received an email from Dennis,
you won't understand his answer "if I thought I could do better, just let
him know". Now, his email didn't come right out and say that, but if
you read around the flowery words, you got that impression. Never
one to walk away from a challenge, I wrote back and said yes I could. That
was to become the beginnings of AccessGenealogy.
Our first real
adventure into web site building together, came with the Discover
Genealogy WebRing, a site I suggested, and he said build them, and they
will come!! When he said that I don't think he had any idea just how
little I knew about building web pages. Dennis then suggested the state
pages that became AccessGenealogy. Between the two of us we
suggested, built, and suggested some more and we are still suggesting and
building.
Both of us
have always had an avid interest in books, Dennis first suggested we
purchase some old books and put them on line for others to read. He
created a real monster with this idea, our walls are lined with
bookshelves, our computer areas have books stacks, the floor and now we
even have them in storage!! Some day, we tell each other we will
have them all on line, however, that will never happen if we don't stop
buying!
Years
and states separate this joint effort but with computer neither of those
matter.
