Has anyone registered with www(.)webfamily(.)org(.)uk ?? There is a list of people on there with the Lelliott surname that I am researching, along with my Nan's! Any chance someone can tell me what other info they hold that can be accessed when you're a registered member? They aren't taking anymore registrations at this moment in time. Tantalising website - but I can't see much point in it if people can't access anymore info. Hope someone can help. Alison

hi alison have you ever googled the name. sometimes if people are researching a certain name they can be found on a google search. i do know that if someone puts a message on rootsweb or ancestry it will appear on a google search. hope that makes sense. maybe you could contact someone that way love brenda x

hi Alison this is the site that caused a bit of commotion a while back. Lots of people on here were finding their recently (in the last few years) deceased relatives on it, but no-one seemed able to access the details. I'm sure there were quite a few that tried to contact the site owners too and never heard anything back. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful Christine

Thanks for your replies. Christine - aha...I'm not surprised it caused a commotion, I was really surprised because my Nan only passed away 3 years ago. I would still like to know what extra details they have on the site for her, considering they seem to know so much already! I don't have a problem with that so long as I can access all the info. Like the many others that you mentioned I too emailed them and got no reply. Has anyone out there got a registration with this site?
