There is always the OOPs! factor when we edit our own work.  No matter how often we check our queries, once we hit the submit/send button we find a mistake; or possibly more information we should have added to make the query clearer.

If you posted on a Rootsweb message board, you can provide a “reply” to your own message with correction/further details.  If you accidentally posted to the wrong message board (yes it is important to make sure you are posting to the county in the correct state), you need to contact the administrator.

Please keep in mind that many administrators run many boards and it helps if you are specific about which board and message you want the correction to occur.

The Official Guide to Rootsweb.com goes into details about the ins and outs of message boards.
