Hi George

If you stick to one thread then we can all see, what has been found previously

The thread to which any new information should be added:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1327166

[EDIT: Actually that one's been marked "answered" by mistake, so nobody will look at it any more. Maybe better to continue here instead, although a nuisance to check what info's already on the other thread.]

Does anyone take any notice of the ticks?


I dont

In fact, I make a point of looking out for threads with an "answered" tick as most of the time these have been marked in error and there is usually more information available to find.

George, just a tip for when you're using the community boards - on the left hand side of the page is a link called "My Threads" (under the heading "Tools").

Clicking on that will take you to all the threads you have started or posted on. If you
have a further query on a family that you have previously asked about then just add it to the bottom of the relevant thread - it will then move to the top of the boards where it will be seen by people who may be able to help. It also moves it to the top of the "My Threads" of people who have previously helped you and may be able to assist further.

Are you completely sure that the two families are linked?

I'm thinking of the geography.............

Hi Reggie,

I can confirm that Margaret and Mary Anne where the daughters of Christopher and Maria as I have done searching on other sites, but because I don't have any idea of Christophers birth date it is hard to make a decision as Irish family first names are carried on to sons and daughters, but thanks for the info and I will keeping looking.

Thanks to all
