color-coded fonts and emoticons, and private chat capabilities, we think you'll
love your chatting experience. If you would like a to read a basic overview
of the features of this room, please check out the Chat Guide for Beginners
below. These chat rooms may or may not be moderated. My name is Kimberly Powell

genealogy chat as KimberlyHOST.
Chat Schedule
Chat room #1 is open 24/7 for all of you to use, but we also offer
scheduled hosted and topic chats every Monday and occasionally on other days. Please check out our
schedule for your areas of interest!
Chat Buddies - Chatter Profiles
Meet some of the
people who participate in our chat room and learn about their surnames, their
interests and their life offline! Many of these people are regulars in our daily
scheduled chats, but it is also a good place to find someone to chat with at
other times (just think, a personal chat buddy)! You can also add your own chatter
profile!

the chat room is moderated so that everyone can enjoy! Please make sure you are
familiar with the moderated chat procedures before joining a guest chat!
Free Chat Space for Your Group
If you have a genealogy related group (such as a local genealogy
society, family reunion planning committee or surname association) that would like a place
online for your members to meet ... then please consider the advantages of using
our free, private (password protected) Chat Room #2.
