Is anyone else up to their eyes in bits of paper showing GRO references, census transcripts, family groups etc. I have a folder full going back years.

YES ME!!! I have some beautifully organised files, and 2 huge stacks of paper!!!! One to be 'input' on Family Tree Maker and one to be filed. Never seem to get the 2 things to meet! Maz. XX

At least I have all the certificates in one place. Just need to sort them all out now.

I've got six big files - 3 for my side and 3 for my husband's side of the family. Don't quite know how that worked out - obviously haven't got much on one branch of each side of the family and I've got paper everywhere. Guess what I'll be leaving our kids to sort or turf out. lol
