I have a lot of information on this family. Are you still interested?
Best,

Hi Alison and welcome to the boards.

As the original post from Robert is 12 years old, he's unlikely to be watching for replies and it actually looks as though he is no longer a member.

You could try clicking on his name to send a personal message through the GR system. They can notify him there is one in their system, if he still has the same email address he registered with the site. Then you have to wait and hope it gets there and he is still in a position to receive it and reply.

Welcome to the boards, Alison.

Unfortunately, Robert posted that request over 12 years ago, and won't be looking for replies here now. He may not even be a member of GR now.

You can try to contact him by clicking on his name at the top of his post and sending him a private message.
If he still uses the email address he registered with GR, they will notify him that he has a message from you.

No guarantees that he will either receive, read, or reply to it, though.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
