GAUER Queries
-----------------------------------------------
This web site has now been on the net for over 10 years (which, in Internet time, is like 50 normal years :-). I regularly get contacted by other researchers around the world who are interested in the GAUER family. My original idea was to accept emails from GAUER researchers and create and maintain a list of GAUER researchers and queries for information. Due to the pressures of a normal life this hasn't worked out the way I hoped. So now we move to plan B. :-)

Instead of sending querys and announcements of your research interests to me I would now like to ask the reader of this page to add a new entry to the GAUER discussion forums below to make your interests and needs known to other GAUER researchers on the internet. To do this follow this procedure:

  1. There are a couple of GAUER surname discussion boards on the internet. This one at Ancestry.com appears to be the most current but the Genealogy.com GAUER Discussion board is also useful. Use either one or both.
  2. On Ancestry click on the "Start new Thread" button on that page (on Genealogy.com click on "Post New Message")
  3. At this point you will have to register for a free account or login to continue
  4. Fill in your Name
  5. Fill in your Email address. I usually don't use my normal email address on these sites. I have one of those free email accounts (like hotmail.com) and I use that email address to mislead spammers who comb forums looking for email addresses.
  6. Fill in the subject. Try to make it as descriptive as possible to attract people to read your entry.
  7. Fill in the Message. If you know any of the following information please be sure to include it in your message: Ancestors name, birth date, location of birth, date of death, where died, spouses (including maiden name if known), where married, date of marriage, names and full details (birth/death/marriage/location) of any children, any other identifying information you have and finally what information you are looking for.
  8. Click on the "Submit" button and thats it! Your new query will be added to the GAUER discussion forum.

If you have any questions about the above procedure please send email to me and I will try my best to assist you. I encourage everyone with a GAUER ancestor to place an entry on this GAUER discussion page and I hope someone will connect with long lost family there someday.
A final warning; be aware of privacy when you word your entry. Effectively everyone on the internet will be able to view every word of what you write so think very carefully before including personal information such as addresses and/or phone numbers.
