Do you have a person willing to take over as owner? (And I strongly suggest you need two owners. Either you stay on as co-owner or look for two.)

Once you have people willing to do it, go to Admin, Members. Find the names and open their record by clicking. Where it says Role, open the menu. Change to Owner. Scroll down and save.
Then do the next one, if you need two more.

You can keep yourself as owner - just to safeguard all your work! - but you can change your subscription to receive fewer messages. Perhaps Special Notices Only - click on Subscription on your group homepage - in the menu headed Home. ?Change your delivery preference and scroll down to save.

I believe you can just change the status of the member to owner.

If you select "moderator" you can select individual permissions but "owner" grants everything.

An owner granted me ownership before he passed away and I'm now running his group.? I just granted ownership to others in several groups I owned as backup.? I have known of groups which have become orphaned when the owners refused to grand co-ownership then passed away and decided my groups were more important than just me.

Send out a message asking for volunteers. Put [Admin] at the start of the title so you get your members¡¯ attention.?

If you have some money that is interested, going to the members list, and adjust the part that says member role, to owner. Then make sure that you have them demote you to a member if you're wanting to stay around.
