A bit of unexpected luck

Hi Following a recent post about the Curious Fox site I thought I’d take another look , and found enough familiar names to warrant upgrading to paid membership and replying to some messages there. As a result I’ve discovered a website devoted to the descendants of my Gt Gt Grandmother’s family on my mother's side. Within two days I was contacted by a distant cousin in Canada who has researched that line back as far as the 1600’s! It’s the best £5.00 I’ve spent in a long while! I thought that it was only other people who had luck breaks like that! Lyndsey |

That is a stroke of luck, you must be very excited. I bet Curious Fox gets a lot of new enquiries after that! Best of luck to you. |
