Eek stop it your scaring me now lmao so what ya saying is if im confused now god help me? lmao I have 143 people in my tree which im really proud of cus only started this tree in May (I know I started in 1999 but not really I did cus I got dads birth cert and adoption cert then but then had to stop) Dont seem a lot now when everyone says they have thousands in thier tree's boohoo lol. Denise of the north (sorry if I got ya name wrong xxxxx ) My Dodd family are from I aint got a clue im so sorry :( im kinda very stuck in the great wall of china on my nanna :( All I know of the Dodd is that my Nanna was Frances Mabel Dodd born 31 Oct 1912 she was born on Rose Street Nottingham her mum (my great nanna) was unmarried at the time her name was Ethel Dodd she worked as a domestic cook. I don't know how old she was when she had my nanna but I do know that my nanna Frances added her mums name Ethel onto the front of her own name throughout her life (to start with cus she wasnt old enough to get married) and she simply carried this on, only on her death did her true name come back. Sorry thats all I know about them :( Luv Angie xxxx

Nell ive found that out too !!!!!!!!!!! how weird that the names followed down the generations but ya know whats weirder my youngest is called Liam James I have so many James in my tree its unreal as well as William (tho Liam isnt short for william loL) my brother named his son Thomas and theres quite a lot of them my mums name is Mary and looking through the tree the furthest back all married Mary's but the wirdest thing is none of us had a clue about any of these rellies so makes ya wonder how these names keep getting handed down spookie
