When you say you're looking for relatives do you mean you're trying to trace their ancestors, their descendants, or siblings? It always helps us to help if you can tell us whatever else you know about people, and what research you've already done.

Member Since: January 2004 Posts: 672 Send Message	Thanks again MC, I know how to find the info, I don't usually check it. Preferred it when the info was in sight not hidden. Will call it a day now and wait for Giselle to reply to your post as I am not posting info on people that are probably alive. :-)

Member Since: July 2008 Posts: 18,042 Send Message	Hi Giselle, one thing you won't be sort of on here is responses! If you can just clarify what it is you're wanting to find we'll be happy to help, and to point you in the right direction for where to find info yourself.

	As Giselle is new to the boards, she may well be new to researching and, possibly never even heard of freebmd. I know I had never heard of it when I began. Giselle, it's worth making a note of a couple of really helpful sites.... www.freebmd.org.uk and familysearch.org Good luck.
