Hi Linda and welcome.

You need to have a members permission before you can view their tree.

Prickles. :-)

As Linda is a new member i have sent her a PM.

Not everyone will have photos attached to their tree. I don't have any on mine.

Hi Linda & Welcome :-D

Try the search box (on the main page) to look for relatives..... if you find a match, send a message. Give as much information as you know........ don't just ask "who did your John Brown marry?".

You may or may not get a response, many trees are owned by people who don't seem to look at the site any more.

You won't be able to see anyone else's tree unless they allow it.

Good luck :-D

My PM was opened ..........but no reply. :-(

I also gave advice on how to return to a thread, how to reply on a thread and how to suck eggs.

:-D

Edit:...Ooops!,.... just had a lovely reply from Linda.

Thank you Linda. :-)
