3. Who is the list owner? What does he get paid for this position?

Marc Nozell is the list owner for GEN-NYS-L and GEN-NYS-L-DIGEST. Send him mail if you have completely read this FAQ and still have problems. His preferred email address is: nozell@rootsweb.com, but nozell@wildcat.mv.com or nozell@zko.dec.com will also work.

Do I get paid for this? Ha! Like most other mailing list owners, I support GEN-NYS-L and associated web page on my own time with my own money. I do it because I'm working on tracing my New York ancestors, it is a way to make the internet a better and more useful place, and I enjoy doing it (usually ;-)
