How to Contact Marty Grant

Home > Contact

Thanks for visiting my web pages, I appreciate your interest. If you want to write me please do so, I love to hear from distant cousins and fellow researchers. However, be advised that I get so much mail that it takes me a very long time to answer it all, and by a "long time" I mean weeks, sometimes months. (Sometimes I respond much more quickly, depending on circumstances.) Please don't get angry or indignant with me if I don't respond quickly enough, after all I'm only human, and this is just a hobby, not a business.

I received a ton of mail between 2000 and 2004, but due to my health problems I was unable to answer most of it. I still have over 7,000 messages from that period that I never answered. Those messages are still in my inboxes, and I do look at them occasionally, but it seems very likely that I'll never get to most of them. If you wrote during that period and are still waiting for a response, please write again.

Now, here are some basic guidelines you should use when writing me as it will help us both:

1. Who, When and Where - Be as specific as possible in your query. Names, dates and places are very helpful. The more you tell me upfront, the more likely I will be able to help you.

2. Who are you? - Please sign your message for I like to know who I'm corresponding with by name (at least your first name.)  I save all my mail, incoming and outgoing, and it helps to have a name to file it under instead of just an email address.

Confidentiality: Unless you specifically request otherwise, I'll assume anything you write to me is okay to be shared with other interested researchers.
