               I&UK GENEALOGY CONFERENCE - HELP INDEX       09 Feb 1994
               ======================================

WHAT IS THIS INDEX ?
==================
People included in this index are all participants in the I&UK-GENE
Conference available through Fidonet. Most are not professional 
researchers but offer help on matters with which they may be familiar
to anyone throughout the world who has an interest in Genealogy in the
United Kingdom & Ireland.

Use of this index should enable you to direct questions more easily
to someone with knowledge of your area of interest.

It is stressed that Family History is only the hobby of these people
(and not a full-time occupation) so they have limited time available.
Every effort will be made to help where possible, but no guarantee can
be offered. Requests which are specific in nature are more likely to be
capable of being answered.

AVAILABILITY & UPDATES
======================
This index will be updated periodically and made available through GSDS.
The file name will be UKHPyymm (where yymm is the year and month of issue).
The last update date is indicated on the top line of the file.

Inclusion in this list is open to anyone (not just I&UK residents). 
               
Any person wishing to have their name included in the next release of this
list should send the details to Keith Smith, either through the I&UK-GENE
Echomail Conference or via Netmail on node 2:253/188.16.
