I think it's probably something to do with people posting at the same time. Also, if like me you just backspace or click the back button to go to main page, then it hasnt refreshed the page. Margaret

Oh well, I am glad it isn't just me!! I don't think it has anything to do with a lot of people trying to answer though Ann as the particular thread I used as an example only ever got 3 answers. It is annoying when you go searching for people for someone and come back to find that the answer was already on there and you just couldn't see it before. Grumble, grumble!! More tea!!

Have seen that before. It shows no replies but there are one or two on the thread. The other evening posted a reply on a thread - which showed up as second reply - but the time was earlier than the first one - strange. Maureen

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England.

Does anyone know if there is a time lapse working on here? I see a request on the boards which says no replies. I go to post a message and see there are really several replies, then when I go back to the list it still shows no replies. Does that make any sense? Sorry it is a bit confusing to me too. Perhaps I need more tea to wake me up! Maggie
