Been like that for ages now

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England. Researching Caven, McKill, Sutherland and Will in Scotland.

Actually, that information has been there for literally MONTHS.


But, this thread just proves what many of us have been saying for years now ..................


It is no use GR posting information on how to use the site, or better use the site, when people do not read what they post as advice!


and yet, informing people to look at GR's own advice on how to best use the site is what gets many helpers in trouble with some other people on this site.


can't win for losing :-D :-D

My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.
