The GenNPdC community is open to all amateur genealogists who are researching the areas of the Nord and Pas-de-Calais (as well as the former provinces of Hainaut, Boulonnais, Artois, Flanders, and Cambrésis).
The discussion listserv GenNPdC, which debuted on the internet in 1999 and was read by about 1,850 people daily, was discontinued on 31 december 2006.

Instead, we now have an interactive forum, divided in approximately 20 research sections. GenNPdC is a free service.

Currently, GenNPdC offers, at no charge:

- Member-to-member help forums, with nearly 6,000 members (from beginner to expert, ages ranging from 14 to 83, on every continent).

- Transcripts made available by individual members (mostly from the Dunkerque area for now).

If you're not familiar with GenNPdC, join us !
