Welcome, I will help direct this Message Board should any one venture in.

I have responded to old messages posted within the last few years and hopefully will see people begin to know this list has merit and direction.

The people who visit will determine that direction.

Hearst Message Board Administrator
==================================

I respond to all posts that I know the least bit about and allow the others to sit and to find some expert to respond if the poster is lucky.

This site will be needed when a new Hearst descendant or spouse happens upon it as their first choice of learning how to research.

All levels of questions are solicited for there is no cost to post and only time pays for the free answers which is gladly given to a neophyte or an expert researching Hearst descendant or spouse.
