Hello,

As we near the 10th anniversary of the forum (and the 12th anniversary of the site), I am proud to reveal the new and improved Hanifin Family Genealogy site! The revamped site is far easier to update, and less vulnerable to junk mail senders (aka spammers).

Please ask you questions here, as you are more likely to get your questions answered if you post them here than if you send them directly to me. [:-)]

This is also a great place to share your family stories and history! I hope you find this forum helpful!

Over 35,000+ messages were posted to our forum over the past 10 years. Only 430 legitimate messages were posted!!!

In order to reduce the amount of work I have to do removing junk messages (aka spam) every day, everyone who wishes to post to this forum will have to create an account. Automatic spam filters have been put in place as an additional precaution. By now everyone should be comfortable filling out a short registration form.

I hope you understand.
