Hi Denise,

Sorry it's taken me a while to reply. Thanks so much for your wonderfull help.

I have just received an email from this person's descendent and think we've found a match, hence the delay in replying.

Your wonderfull help is just brilliant and has helped a great deal. Especially the address, I can now ask her to confirm the address.

Oooh!!!! What excitement, I cna't wait for her reply.

Thanks again, your a true star, exciting times await.

I wish you much luck with your own tree hunting and thanks again.

Good Luck Lou x
