You may find it beneficial in such circumstances to click edit on your original request and add the new question, thus keeping all the information on one thread.

I can understand what you are saying Josephine. The problem is that you will almost inevitably get asked the same questions by the same people!
Trust me, if you need extra info it really is best to stick to one post. People who try to help out will find it impossible to move around between different posts and help successfully.

To Whom This May Concern
Although I'm sure all of us who are trying to find our ancestors really do appreciate help in these matters, I am not, (as others) not as yet, used to posting the information. If helpers did just take a little time to look at the message again, they may find the content given is actually extra information asked for by other helpers. It may also point out that the question asked in the first message has actually not been answered correctly and so the person is trying to explain what it is they are looking for. Please do not be too quick to criticise withoug actually looking. Thank you.
