Well she responded to my friend request. We are meeting tomorrow at my house. Her mother says she is an only child! Will have to carefully tell her there are two half sisters and three brothers.
Thanks very much for your help xx

Friend requests sent. I knew messages would go into other messages but as you say some people don't know about them.
My daughter actually knew one of the Phil Skaymans and asked him some questions, but he's related to the lady who died and was not related to me

If you are not friends with these people, any messages normally go to their 'other' folder and they may not notice it for months or at all, as you do not get a notification at the top of the screen

May be better to send a friend request

No response yet. But I know not everyone goes on there every day.
My daughter actually knows one of the Philip Skaymans and contacted him. He is the grandson of the lady who'd died. So just waiting :)

Sadly she had died a few weeks ago. We got to talk to her daughter who told us enough to know it was the wrong lady.
So back to the drawing board

Both GR and FMP have the electoral rolls included in their subs...but obviously not standard GR sub

You can also access them with credits which would work out a lot cheaper than 192.com

There are no subs to 192 you have to buy units and its expensive.

However FMP has electoral rolls so will take a look
