RAOGK Partners up with FamilyLink.com

I wrote about RAOGK lst week - the "Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness" wherein someone will  obtain a specific genelogical errand for you.

Well, it's partnered, not surprisingly, with a Networking site caled FamilyLink.com wherein (presently) 1,700 individuals 'advertise' their willingness to do research from a specific geographic base and sometimes mention their own genealogical research focus as well. 

It was only a couple of weeks ago that researcher visiting the MHSA really wanted to know something about Drake, Saskatchewan.  It's a very small place and she wanted to know about one surname/family that lived there.  With the right contact ... the question would probably have been resolved in a few minutes just from their personal knowledge.

Unfortunately for us, there are no network listings yet for Ukraine.  But, it's about giving too - not just receiving.
