I have a follow-up question.

When I use the surname field, will my query be linked automatically to the message board for that surname?

Example: I post a query about WATSON (and use the surname field) in a USA>Florida board. Will my message also appear in Surname>Watson?

If the answer is yes, then why is my post not showing up in the correct boards? ie http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.ohi... and http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.cuba.general...

If I go to Surname>Watson or Surname>Anton, my recent post isn't listed...

Thanks
