Janine, Although it can be very frustrating at times that only makes the joy of finding the missing relies that much sweeter when we do find them, I find that at times like that it is best to leave them alone for a day or two and then start afresh rather than using previous info as sometimes that can be were the problem lies? If that makes any sense to you. good luck Roy

Hi Janine You have to add all the people that you know of into GR otherwise how can someone get in contact with you. Its also good to spend money on birth or marriage certs. This will give you some more names and help in finding people.
