Thank you Mr. M.

Like Belle, there are a few gaps in name recognition, but whoever, I usually find the stories of what is discovered interesting.

OMGoodness, I am getting on … ever so slightly! :-D

I know only two, Will and Ross.

Thank you Mr M. :-)

Researching:
No idea who this is! I found the photo in my porch several years ago and have held onto it in case someone claims them as his/her own. On the back is written, 'Mother, Christine and Judith' .... so if you know who these people are, please let me know.

Doesn’t matter whose background they delve into, they always are, aren’t they, Kath?

Do you recall Jeremy Paxman shedding a few tears?

There was one EastEnders guy whose line stretched to Alfred the Great and some of his, I found on mine, but then my DNA shows 62% south-east England - and I knew immediately that was my Dad’s London and Essex ancestors.

Weird innit - but fascinating, I think.

Something to look forward to on the telly. :-)
