Thanks Carole and Diane It probably is a good idea and maybe I'm being pernickity here but I think (linked) would be better. That way it's obvious from the start that you haven't contacted the person yourself -I think I'll find problems if I want to contact anyone else for more info on a particular relative but I guess I'll have to keep checking the 'my contacts' section. to make sure I haven't already emailed them...sorry I know what I want to say but it isn't coming out clearly!!!!LOL Thanks Gaynor...I checked but there was anyone new on there Aileenx |

Hi Aileen, Don't forget the contact list isn't only about you contacting them - somebody may well have contacted YOU through GC. Click on "Click Here to view the contents of the original email contact" - this will then show the message that someone else has sent you or what you sent them. Gaynor |

Yes, When you contact somebody about a possible line, the red contacted goes against all the entries in their tree. Diane |

These will all be people on the tree of the people you have contacted. It saves you contacting the same person if you see another name that you recognise. |

I know that there has been a recent thread about this but I can't find it so sorry to repeat it all over again, folks!!....I have contacted two GR members recently regarding a particular family name but after looking through the name list this morning, it looks like I've contacted a whole lot more when I haven't!! I have (contacted) by the side of about 20 names and I can only assume that these other people are the contacts of MY contacts that have been linked . I have found this all very confusing to say the least and can see that this will cause me lots of problems in the future......what does anyone else think???? Love Aileenx |
