An Important Message from "Long Island Genealogy"
         When this site in 1997 it was with the goal of making and sharing accurate Long Island heritage information to people worldwide. Information which had been difficult to get by those living off the Island.  As of December 2011 LIG averages between 1,000 and 1,500 visitors per day.

         Long Island Genealogy has become a public trust, a place where anyone can share their research and benefit from ours. I strive to make it a place where incorrect information can easily be corrected, constantly refined and improved in an effort to avoid perpetuating Internet errors.

         LIG could have been made into a for-profit Website with advertising banners, popups and tempting credit card offers but I decided to do something different. I have worked hard over the years to keep it clean and free. Commerce is fine and advertising is not evil. But I just didn't feel it belonged here. Most months I end up covering site costs myself.

         Unfortunately I need to ask help from those that use LIG. Please consider making a contribution of $10, $20, $50 or whatever you can to help me continue sustaining Long Island Genealogy. If everyone using LIG donated $10, I would never have to fund raise again. I realize not everyone can or will be able to contribute, and that's fine. Whatever you can do is appreciated. I know times are tough, they are tough for all of us but I really need you to consider a small contribution toward the effort. It would be wonderful to pull all google ads and stop asking for donations when 2012 begins!! I would love to only have to concentrate of research, not fund raising. Please help me achieve that goal.
