July 2010 Chat Schedule
Monday, July 5, 8:00pm (MST) (Tuesday July 6, 2:00am GMT) GENTREK: Why American Families Migrated, part 1.
For a family life, few acts have such fateful import as that of migration. When we study a particular lineage and inquire into the causes of its metamorphoses – the reversals of fortune, the conversions of faith, the severing of old ties, the adoptions of new cultural modes – the act of migration is likely either to be imminent or to have recently occurred. Consequently, we must give particular attention to migration, to its causes and its results. Your Chat Hosts, Jayne McCormick and Dae Powell.

The War of 1812 has been referred to by some historians as America’s “forgotten conflict.” The War of 1812 is also called America's Second War for Independence. The ostensible causes of the war were the seizure of U.S. ships and seamen by the British Navy, as well as rapid expansion of the frontier, where British intrigue was blamed for American settlers' troubles with Indians.

Monday, July 26, 10:00pm (MST) Ready, Set, Go! Adventures in Archives for Family Historians

The next time you visit an archive, you will be a pro! Your Chat Host, Heather Isbell Kramer.

8pm MDT equates to 3am here in the UK. So I think the chat sessions are out unless I develop insomnia.

Hi Christine,
As an old soldier, I'm familiar with GMT or Zulu Time. I found it the easiest to use when multiple time zones were involved. Does this make 2 votes? LOL

What is the limit in a chat room?

We did exceed the Ning limit for people in the Chat Room last night. The good news is that Dae and Jayne will be repeating that chat in 3 weeks. We have asked Ning if we can increase the limit of the chat room. Hopefully, we will hear back soon.
I will post a new chat schedule in the next few days
