I contacted annais1 on Roy's behalf on 15th May, asking him/her to contact Roy, but annais1 hasn't read my message.

I've just sent it again.

Possibly he/she thought it was some sort of scam message.

I do intend using Free BMD and GRO sites but I was just hoping I might have found somebody on here that had a personal ling to Frank and Agnes. Still thanks for all you help and if anyone comes up with anything I am keen to hear.

For personal links, use ‘search all member trees’. Be pro-active. Do your own research and keep your own tree on here up-to-date.

Don’t rely so much on other people, as hardly anyone uses these boards nowadays - doing it yourself is so much more enjoyable

Incidentally, you have in excess of 20 threads on here connected with the name Horwell, to many of which you don’t seem to have returned….perhaps you would do so, and add comments on all the info posted.
