	Perhaps this has already been done but I thought I would draw attention to the free service on Channel 4 Teletext pages 154 and 155. Each week they have a new set of 58 different requests for Family Tree information. It looks useful but I wonder if anyone ever has any success with it?? Anne

	This was actually what got me started, about 7 years ago. Someone was searching for any information regarding my fairly uncommon maiden name. I responded and the rest is history! I got the bug and am helping to collect information for the registered one-name study of that surname. Have found family resemblances between families with no present day link., -very intriguing and makes us want to search back for an ancestoral link.
