On Rootsweb, I have found numerous relatives of mine, does anyone know how I would be able to contact the originator of that tree? thx Nicola

OMG, I have even found my grandfather on there William Edward James Trussell born 1917, they have that wrong though as he was born 1916. But they even have his parents on there. Nicola

Above the line that says: Index | Descendancy | Register | Pedigree | Ahnentafel | Add Post-em there's a contact e-mail address (at least there is on the page that shows my great-grandfather). It's one of those 'camoflaged' pieces of texts that are designed to stop spam-bots from identifying addresses to send junk mail to. Gordon

Don't hold your breath waiting for a reply, Nicola. I e-mailed someone on there about the eldest child of my gt-gdparents, saying I was a descendent of the youngest child - who they seem to know nothing about, as she was born after a move to another town. I've heard nothing - their loss, because they also have no idea of gt-gdma's first marr and two children from it . Obviously haven't sourced her marriage to gt-grandfather with either cert or PR, or they would know she had been married twice! Shame, I could have taken them back to the early 1700's if they'd had the courtesy to reply. Jay

Its such a shame when people are like that, don't they ever realise that they could be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't reply. Makes you wonder why they put their trees on for the public to see if they are not prepared to answer. Nicola x
