Nice to see you back Brian

I think we all get to a block and the interest pales a bit cos we don't know where to go

Personally I would miss look ups so try to help others

I do renew subs each year to ancestry and FMP. Cos I would miss the searching

I am to on a site for BHC children in Canada and look for info on ancestors for folks who have a BHC father or grandparent
My mums half sister was a BHC in 1909 from the Hackney union chidrens home where she and her brothers had been put in 1905 when their 29 years old mum died


So interests can come and go depending when the block happens

Brian ,I hope you get renewed interest

Cornish cream tea is far in a way the best cream tea in the whole world! But then we did live on the Lizard years ago!! :-D
