Who are the "Founders" of your group? Please tell us about the "Founders".I am the founder of the group blackempressss and Simon is the co-founder of the group. I am all about family i believe in that family connection and knowing who i am and where i am from and all the things that make you say hmmn when another family member say something and you see how alike you are. I believe family is not just bloodline but its that trust you share with people knowing you can always count on them to be there and support you, and by support i don't mean give money to you, i mean been in your corner looking out for you, not letting anything bad happen and thats where the trustline comes in. I was born in jamaica and came to live in Canada when i was 16 years old, I am an only child by my mom and number 4 of several for my dad he is still getting children. I have a son and he is a great young man and i am confident that i did the best job i could as a parent. I have been married twice but i tend to focus on the first marriage as i dont really value the 2nd marriage and thats a whole different story. I work in the fast food industry McDonalds to be exact, i am the 2nd assistant manager at present which is two step from running my own McDonalds, however in the early part of this year, i was given a chance to run a small mall McDonalds for 4 months until the person who is suppost to run it came off vacation.

Tell us about your first birthday? What did you do? Our 1st birthday was on May 31st of 2008. We gather in the chat room and chat it up and it was fun members came in at different time to chat as time allows. There was also a message on the general board where members could wish the group a happy birthday, those wishes was then copy and paste on a board and is now to the left of the group under the title our 1st birthday. So anyone browsing our group will see the wishes of our members to the group on our birthday. Other people was invited to chat with us as well so we did have a guest showed up and chat with us abit.
WOW! You have several members that have been with your group for over a year. Please tell us about a couple of them. Simon, Mel, Chev, Isaac, Crystal, Anthony, April, Sas, Omar, Cecil and Samantha are with the group for a year.
You have several awards & diplomas. Please tell us about a couple of them. My copyright award i got after i have completed my copyright class after much assignments and projects lol. My pat on the back award was a nice surprise i got that over at simons group lets just talk, Simon was away on holidays and i as a member just made sure the threads was moving by posting daily quotes and just been an active member, it was the summer time and work was not so hectic as back then i was a shift manager. My awards from free graphic for everyone are for various participation in the group monthly. My member of the month award are for outstanding participation within that particular group.
What plans do you have for the "Members Awards" . The members awards are a two part idea, members can actual share there awards from any group with us and tell us what they did to get that award. And later on we here at Duhaneys Family Connected will also do a monthly awards once our membership has picked up and activity is moving along on the general board.
Please tell us about your "Partner Sites". When i just started out on msn i stumble across Simon in my need to create a chatroom for my group, as he was more experience with msn groups as it had changed abit since i was last in an msn group, he introduce me to Chat Central Chatroom and his group Lets Just Talk. I like the backgrounds etc he had and ask how i could get something like that, he then tell me that there was a way to make them. I was frustrated with the chatroom situation and my brain was not programming information at 3 am my time which i believe was about 9 am UK time. I made Simon an assistant of my group to help me with the look of the group at the time i never stop to think he was a stranger and i knew nothing about him to give that kind of trust, but i trust my instinct and i did give him that power in my group. Duhaney Family Connected became partner with Lets Just Talk some months later, now even though i am partner with Lets Just Talk i am one of the mailbox greeter there in that group which as no managerial power at all. Simon went on to teach me backgrounds and copyright and i came in to my own and start developing a new look for DFC my way, Simon is still a co-founder/assistant manager of DFC and from time to time we still coloborate on things. We at present have an idea in the works but will take sometime to develop. We are partner with Lets just talk because its a site for all ages just like DFC and we are both family oriented. Simon latest creation is the group Family History Hunters we are partnered with that group which i am also an assistant manager in as it focuses in details about the history of all family of the group and working together as a group to hunt down family information internationally. Simon and I are both members of various sites that provide various family information, which at any given time all our members from both DFC and FHH is readly available to you all.
