I know that some of you have expressed an interest in a family wide mailing list. However the decision was made to not publish that list because a lot of people are also interested in protecting their privacy. However, family members who are registered in the Forum can send Email to each other without knowing the actual Email address of the recipient.
Just look in the Forum memberlist, which is only visible after a registered member logs in, and look for the name of the person you want to contact. Then click on the little icon that resembles the word EMAIL. A message form will pop up and you can type your message. The recipient can then choose whether or not to respond and share their real Email address with you.
Now some people have chosen to hide their Email address. You can still send them a private message in the forum and they should get that when they log back in to the forum eventually.
I know it is not quite as easy as a family directory, but it is a very fine solution and one of the more substantial benefits of this web site and membership in the forum.
If you are not yet a member of the Forum, then head over to the Contact Us page, fill in the GEDCOM Form with information that will prove your relation to George Zimmerman, and then you can register for the Forum. Forum membership will be approved after your name is connected to the Family Tree GEDCOM.
Thank you,
