I'd like some from earlier in the aphabet, I have Hunt, Hoskins and Honeybourne that I would love to find other people researching, but no, just Smith arrives.

What really annoys me about hot matches is that it never gives me past B - I would love help with my fathers line, but Gardner never seems to come up, I have asked them umpteen times about this, and all they say is they can only give a certain number at a time, and if they all happen to be in the first few letters of the alphabet, then that cant be helped! Why cant they restrict the location search a bit and therefore give us more variety in the names we are getting!?!?!?!?!?!?! It doesnt take a genius. lol.

I know. I have to delete umpteen William Grays every time, many of whom weren't even born on the same CONTINENT! Also William Matthews, John Matthews, John Gray.... nell

Just got my Hot Matches, 5 pages of William Smiths and not one of them born within 100 miles of mine. There were a few with no birthplace at all, not even a Country ???
