I don't know whether anyone has mentioned this on these boards but last night whilst consulting CEEFAX I saw an item about people contacting the BBC regarding research into their family trees. I think the no. was 622. Rosemary(Essex)

There is also a Family Tree section on Channel 4 Teletext. Pages 154 and 155. There are 56 free "looking for" type entries every week. Anne

I think this BBC appeal may be to do with a new programme they are planning. Rosemary(Essex)

Hi Rosemary, Nothing like that in my family tree! My ancestors all worked on the land, the railway, drove coaches or made boots and shoes. Very mundane! Rosemary(Essex)
