Discover your potential cousins with the search engine
Proposed and voted during our last General Assembly, and announced last month, the new functionality for our Web tool has arrived and allows you to find your cousins. Go to the
"Cousins" section to find:
The list of your potential cousins
You will be able to see who, among the other members of the Association participating in the cousins' initiative, has ordered at least one record that you have also ordered.
-
For any listed cousin, you will know the number of records in common together with their listing (birth, marriage and death
-
This is an excellent way to interact, exchange information and find more or less distant cousins.
The list of your surnames
The records you order are analysed to allow you to see a table of all the surnames that appear in your records with their occurrence.
Important note
This new cousin smart functionality is only activated if you wish to take part in this initiative. In order to do so, all you have to do is to tick a box on your profile. By doing so you will be visible to the other members of the Association who are participating.
I wish you happy findings and new encounters.

Forthcoming improvements to our website
Search engine
Our search engine main functions have now all been implemented. The remainder of the year will be used to:
-
Set up minor improvements being necessary or useful, eg saving your basket in the database (so as not to lose all its contents in case of unforeseen Internet disconnection).
-
Correcting errors brought to our attention by members.
So do not hesitate to let us know of any errors you may find and if you have any suggestions, please write to
info@procida-family.com.
Our next General Assembly in 2009 will also be the opportunity to launch new projects.
The MSN discussion group
Due to lack of activity (less than a message a month) and my repeated appeals to find a volunteer to manage it and give it a new lease of life, I will propose its permanent closure to the Administrative
team.

New indexes available
New indexes have been added to our database this month.

Congratulazioni ed auguri. Cordialmente.
