I noticed that too. In fact I thought of you when I was wondering round my lots church yard this afternoon - as there are a mob of Emms buried amongst them. I am sure someone was looking for Norfolk Emms. Actually you have inspired me to concentrate on my Norfolk lot of Horsteads Glen. Im going to put some effort into them and stop flitting about the others for a while. I was surprised that at the churchyard - which is very small - I hadnt noticed the rows of gravestones in front of them which included names that the Horsteads married into. So Im just going over my FTM stuff now, sorting out which of those are related. Interesting.

I'm new to GR, although not to Family History, and I have already learned so much from just reading your questions and answers. Thank you so much. One question though - what does LOL mean? I thought it meant Lots of Love, but now I'm not so sure! Thanks again to all of you. Chris
