Comment by Steven Whitebread on May 26, 2010 at 6:00pm: Chris Pomery's course sounds interesting. Not sure I would have enough time available, but it's tempting. Steven

Comment by Debbie Kennett on May 26, 2010 at 4:34pm: I've just noticed that there are a lot of new courses listed on the Pharos Tutors website:

Quite a few are led by Guild members - Kirsty Gray on one-place genealogy, Chris Pomery on genetic genealogy and Guy Grannum on The National Archives catalogue. Has anyone tried any of the Pharos courses?

Comment by Debbie Kennett on May 15, 2010 at 6:56am: We now have a new Guild fan page on Facebook. If you're on Facebook do join us there. You can find the new page here.

Comment by Steven Whitebread on November 22, 2009 at 5:35pm: Yes, I think I can report some success with my Whitebread and Whitbread One-Name Study Group. I currently have 31 members, including about 8 new contacts. I have added an index to all of the different families known to me, with links from this to separate discussions for each family. I have added descendency charts and family tress for each, and through this I getting lots of new material. I am kept very busy with this site.

Comment by Keith Bage on November 1, 2009 at 9:47am: Well, we now have 126 members here on our group in GW. Has anyone had any success with their surname groups? How are you all finding the GW experience?

Yes I would be grateful if you could take it forward.

Comment by Wendy Archer on August 15, 2009 at 1:32am: Cliff -

My understanding is that there is an intent to have a Society listing also, in which the Guild should figure.
I think having the Guild listed in the surname groups also is an excellent idea - would you like me to take this forward?

I have looked at the surname group listing and it is interesting to see that the Guild of One-Name Study group is not listing. Do you think it should be listed even though it is not a single surname group?

Comment by Clifford Kemball on August 15, 2009 at 1:00am: Can you add more than one location. I orginally set mine to "Worldwide". Then I changed it to "GOONS". Ideally I would like to use both.
