my mum and other members of my family have known that I have been trying to trace my family tree for a while now! Anyway I have just had a call off my great aunt to tell me that she has just remembered Im not the only one in the family interested in their family tree! My mum's cousin has gone back to the 1600's. My grandad and his mum were sisters.....so I am now going to get on the phone and ask him for a look at the info he has got! There's me struggling to get off the ground and he has got most of the info on that side of the family that I need..........doh! Wish I knew that earlier! Bev

Isn't it just so so frustrating when they do that.... My Grandma held onto infor for 2 years until we got her pie eyed at Crimbo.... now I 'm on a role with my paternal branch!!! I've never been more thankful to Sherry in all my life!!! :O)

Just hope he lets me have a look....he is not exactly the most unselfish person! He can be a bit funny and believes if you want to know something you should find out for yourself! Bev

Perhaps he'd give you some clues, ask him if he'll confirm things, yes flatter him. No man can resist flattery. jess x
