Hi

My friend is Max who is the son of Kathleen Sworn, Cecil's niece and Edward's daughter. Max''s email address is [email protected]. He would be pleased to talk to you soon.

If you cannot reach him reply to me through Genes reunited & I will pass it on.

Hello Penny, welcome to the boards.

If you want to contact Sue then the best way to do so is to click on her name to send a direct message - that's the way contact is made, not by email. It's against Gene's terms & conditions to post email addresses (it's not a secure site) so it would be better if you edit your post to remove it.

Good luck with making contact.
