Websites on Pioneers and New LDS Dating Service
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- Newly listed on one LDS Directory is the Sons
of the Utah Pioneers website, which, with the better-known Daughters
of the Utah Pioneers, make up the heritage organizations that
celebrate the efforts of the pioneers, most of whom were Mormon, to
settle Utah. In addition, an LDS Pioneers webring gives access to
websites that contain histories of LDS pioneers.
Also new this week is the LDS Social Seek, another LDS dating service
website. In addition to allowing users to add information about
themselves to a searchable database, and letting users search that
database, it also allows some contact before paying a fee, unlike
other dating services, it claims.
