Web pages are developed in the HTML and maintained on two IBM computers in our local network and then copied onto the web server.  (Sensitive genealogical data are kept on two other IBM computers not connected to the Internet.)  Non-digital photographs are input via a Lexmark X7675 scanner.  For optimum viewing, use a 1024 x 768 pixel display, small fonts, and the Firefox browser Get Firefox!.  Pages added since 2002 conform to Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional code and CSS2 standards. 

The evolution of our four predecessor web sites was as follows:

  • Our 1st site was small and slow.  It began in December 1995.
  • Our 2nd site began in February 1997 and was bigger and better.
  • Our 3rd site went online in June 1997 and grew to 70 pages.
  • Our 4th site went online in October 2002 with the new URL www.hancockonline.net.  It grew to 211 pages.

The web servers for these sites were initially located in Santa Monica and later in Los Angeles, California.  The first three sites were commercial sites addressed with our prior URL www.AIA-AnD.com.  The data within our sites as they existed from May 1997 to December 2010 were archived and are available from the Internet Archive's WaybackMachine (www.archive.org).
