How to Post a Query

Query Guidelines

The county site is now using the CCHelper program to generate the indexed queries you find here. A portion of the program is automatic, however I am still importing queries from e-mail and need you to send the messages in a way that will help me to post your query quickly and accurately.

SURNAMES

Put every surname in your query in CAPS at the top of the query body. This is what is used to generate the every name index.

Separate each surname with a comma.

Do NOT use a slash ( / ) to seperate surnames of similiar spellings. If you have a surname with more than one spelling, such as, JUETT, JOUET, JEWETT, show them all. Other uses of the slash in the body of the query are permissible.

BODY OF QUERY

NEVER use a series of dashes in your query. This is the signal to the program to start a new query and your query can get lost if I don't catch it when processing them. Also avoid the words DATE and NAME inside the query.

Do NOT use a colon ( : ) in the body of your query. This can cause part of your query to get lost when I process them. Use a semicolon ( ; ) or a single dash ( - ) or a series of dots ( ... )

Do NOT put given names in CAPS.

Do include your e-mail address along with your name in your signature.

No longer accepting queries in this format.
