well here I am back on again this morning. I have just prepared my dinner for today and watched the Political show on Tv while having my coffee.

How come you people are still doing your family trees ? Have I missed something ? I have all my ancestors trees each Grandfather and Grandmothers trees have seen researched and I have found them all and gone on to Grandfathers and Grandmothers families and so on right back in most cases 1780 some I have managed to get even further.

My father side I have got back to 1634. My Scottish roots back to 1748, Mothers side is back 1685 and 1800 I have also managed to get Mums brothers and sister s spouses famlies way back.
I have them all in book form have not entered them on the family tree on GR as there are so many. where do you stop ?

The two I have not been able to get I have had to give up on, one of the death of my Great Uncle Walter Lee(he was still alive in 1911) and living in Portsmouth listed as ship to shore 1st class petty officer retired. the other Great Uncle (walters brother ) is my Young Absalom Lee born in 1871 who vanished after the 1881 census found no marriage/Death/ emigrations enlistments/or living in Wales where two of his brothers went to live and two of his uncles
. I have sent for death certfictes for Walter all have been wrong.
Absalom vanished. was he murdered ? did he die in an accident? no one knows and I have never been able to find him

so there is no point in my looking in Ancestry .I had a trace done for him it came back negative when I have put them on Trying to Find boards everyone comes back with his father who was also Absalom but born in 1827
so I have two bricks one I know everything but his death. the other who vanished off the face f the earth no matter how many times I scroll through Ancestry I cannot find him.

He is labeled the one that got away.

so how come you ladies are still researching ? what part of the family or are you doing a way back one. ?

Time for a wee relax before my shower.

Children are marvellous. How can anyone harm them ? I keep all the little things they have made for us and given us over the years. As I have done for my own children. Treasures that will pass to them when we are gone.

A cuddle from a child is worth more than a Kings Ransom.

Catch you tomorrow.........God willing.

Night all :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

My wee lambs are getting ready for bed, bathroom flooded usual, great fun was had by all.

They will have a 'Midnight Feast' and be sound asleep by 9 o'clock. Early risers..usually 7.00am.

Pat......how are you ? Don't stir until you're ready and feel better. Are you sure you don't want a flying visit from 'Fluffy Paws?'

Marilyn......Out of Wedlock ! TUT. TUT.

My Grandad registered the name of one of his children AND THEN three weeks later took the REAL father along and had the child registered in his name. I think I'm the only one in the family that knows this bit of scandal.
I was gobsmacked when I found the details on the Birth Certificate and subsequent corrected entry.
Talk about Skeltons in the Cupboard ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

The 'real' dad was a local Accountant........he cooked more than the books eh ! ROFL

Time to have my bairns cuddle down to a story of the Hebrides.

Back later :-) :-) :-) :-)

Hello lady.....have you come back to your friends ? we have some nice good friends that you wont find anywhere else...LOL.... also two lovely MEN that you could swoon over :D :D

Stevey yes I'm back .....aren't you glad ? I am trying to trace my rellies and found another long lost aunt of my mothers but something a bit fishy going on and I'm about to find out ...Ohhhh so exciting ...hmmm out out of wedlock me thinks ;-)

Suppose most cant get in on Genes ,,Lord knows what they are doing to the site.
