Re: [lace] Lorelei Halley

[myonline]

Thanks, Nancy--I'm now capturing what I can from the Internet Archive.  
So far, I haven't found any pages or other content missing, but I have a 
ways to go.  Her main page there also gave me the name of her (previous) 
hosting company, and I've reached out to them to see whether they can 
give us access to her content.


Deborah--you are correct that GoDaddy is the domain registrar now, but 
her site is no longer hosted at that domain, obviously.  I will keep 
trying to find contact information for her family.


I found her Pinterest in my browser history: 
https://www.pinterest.com/lynxlacelady/

Lots of pages there, as well.

A little bit of research and I found that the Lynxlace.com domain registration
was renewed on November 11, 2022.  The registrar is GoDaddy, on name servers
ns1.parklogic.com and ns2.parklogic.com  I'm not totally clear on this, but
the domain name expired September 30. Possibly GoDaddy bought the name on
spec, or perhaps her family used GoDaddy to reregister the domain quickly. It
doesn't put us any closer to finding her next of kin for accessing her data
for preservation. fyi, the internet archive does not crawl every page, so
those files may be incomplete.

The “Lorelei Lynxlady” on Pinterest did not produce anything that looked
like lace related materials.

Do any of you have contact with her family?  That might be the best
way.  In the mean time, I'll see what I can collect from the Internet
Archive and her Pinterest.

So is anyone in touch with either Lorelei's brother or sister?

I don't have such a subscription myself but I'm willing to take over
the lynxlady subscription as an emergency measure, until a long term
solution is worked out.

Or do something else to help. Sarah -- let me know!

Good news, for now. I found Lorelei's Pinterest boards. Search for "Lorelei
lynxlady".  Now, how long do they stay there? There are no fees for
Pinterest so maybe those are good indefinitely.

Clare I like your idea.

Re: [lace] Lorelei Halley

Hi Sarah and Deborah,

Do you know how to rescue the content if I were to purchase the domain name
of lynxlady.com as an emergency step? Is anyone in touch with her brother?
Is anything being done to save her Pinterest boards?

In short, is there anything I can do to help?
