We've just had a flurry of researching activity since the incoming passenger lists were released. We have a really good lead on OH's long lost grandfather, who 'disappeared' c. 1930s. |

I do my tree in bursts of enthusiasm. I tend to do mine more in the winter months so may get another hunt underway soon. |

I've got too many so called brickwalls, - enough to build a village really. |

Not done much on mine for a while now - too busy doing other things (the ancestors, after all aren't going anywhere are they? And I have a life now!!), However, I have 'padded out' a few things - made humans of dead bones. |

Joined in February 2005, and had a mad burst on my tree, then found these boards and tree growth has been slow ever since lol The lovely Rambling Rose helped me with some info the other day and I am all fired up again to find out more, have made contact with two branches of my Dad's side of the tree, one lot in Scotland and the other in Essex and am waiting to hear from another person as to links. |

Been on here since April 2004, been researching for 30 years or more, more seriously in the last eight years. Got several brick walls but still digging away. |

I'm still doing tree but like others pop in here now and again. Last week had acontact from somebody who had just joined GR and thought I had at last knocked down another wall. However after they opened their tree and I did same found they had one person in their tree born 1956, had no contact since so closed my tree albeit after horse bolted. Their lost though cos I've got lots of certs. etc that I would have shared. |

Still researching. Started March 2006. Have had quite a few lovely contacts. Currently tidying up hard copy files and still backing up my findings with certificates. It's the time consuming work now, trawling through BMD's. I take a break from it in the summer but am thankful I have this hobby for the winter months. Like to pop on here for entertainment and tips. At times it beats the TV soaps (which I no longer watch) hands down. Don't post very often but read every day. |
