Ah yes I keep finding Johns marrying Sarahs, Marys or Mary Anns too, all with kids called John, Sarah, Mary, William, etc. And just when I thought I was getting somewhere with the slightly less usual name Thomas, he had to go and marry a Sarah after his first wife - also Sarah - died. |

Hi i have noticed that i have a few wm on my tree. I thought to start with that this was there initials but now i'm thinking it's not as my grandad has put it in a few places in the family tree that he has done. Does it mean that they either don't know the name or can't read the name. If you need an example RG11/4760 v13 f135 pg36 I have just managed to get my computer up and running again i logged out of everything and relogged in and everything seems normal again don't know what was wrong but had me panicked. Thanks Jen |
