I know how you feel had nothing for months, thought maybe I was the only one doing the tree ,now all of a sudden have had 5 rellies contact me in fact there is so much info there isnt enough time to do it all , just bombard them with emails they may get fed up enough to answer especially if their mailbox gets full ,do hope you hear soon I do agree I dont know why some people join

Thanks Folks Your support means such a lot. Yes I will e-mail them again. I have been trying to tread carefully! It's really annoying + I am puzzled as to why they have given me so many clues(names, dates+places). Thing is I KNOW where they are, but they can't find me! I have NO intention of suddenly barging into someones life + wrecking it........(just incase any of them are reading this!) Sorry to be a moaning minnie! Thanks again Annx

Ann, I have contacted a few people on here who have been related and they havent got back to me either. Why put your details on here unless you're interested in your family history? I'm sure some people add their info as an extension of 'Friends' but really aren't that 'into' genealogy. It does make you wonder whether they have recieved the email doesn't it? If I was you I'd email them again and make out you've had problems with your P.C and were worried that they hadn't received your mail! Maybe give them a little more info to catch their interest!!! They'll give in eventually, good luck, Carol

:( Still no response from rellies. They MUST know who I am, I have left enough clues.......They have too. I am wondering why they have added their+ancestors names : There was only mine on here when I started! Are they trying to suss me out, torment me or what!! If ANY rellies ARE reading this, Please contact me. I don't want anything from you......apart from a bit of information about my early life. Thanks Ann:(
