Statement of Policy and Use of Family Histories.

Welcome.  It is our intent to provide a page where Gibson County, Tennessee folks can post and share information.  This page is for the posting of written individual family histories.  Links can be provided to sites with further information, such as GEDCOM or personal web pages.   Theoretically, we have unlimited space for the posting of histories, but submissions should be held to under a thousand words. Photographs can be submitted and displayed with the history.

Each submitter will own the copyright to his submission.   Barry and I will have the copyright on the compilation of submissions.  We will NOT use this information for any commercial undertaking.  We are both committed to FREE access to genealogical information on the web.  There will be no cost associated with viewing these pages.  Any  change in this policy will only come about with the permission of ALL submitters.

Submissions should be in plain text (.txt) files.   While we have the ability to use other formats, it makes life a lot simpler to start in plain text.  All submissions should be the original work of the author. Previously published family histories can only be used with written permission of the author of that history.   Once your history is displayed you will be able to have it modified or corrected as you see fit. 

Barry and I are excited about this project and hope that it aids you in the search for your family roots.
