Are you looking exclusively for possible living relatives, or do you wish to research your FH?

In the sent messages part the contacts there is an envelope against most people i have contacted. Three have no envelope of which 2 i have had replys, the third no reply yet.
Although I have been a member for a couple of years, events in my life have stopped doing much research. It's only in the last 9 mnths that I have really got into it, so by all means treat me as newbiee. Today is the first time I have used the message boards but have read other posts, so know i'm in good hands.
The members i wish to contact should be researching the Brown or Martin family and hopefully a connection to me with the result of find long lost relatives.
Details:
Henry John Fredrick Brown b 1881, Stoke Newington, London - F: Henry V Brown
spouse m 1901
Jane Evelyn Mary Jones b 1878, Islington, London - M: Julia Maddox
they had eight children, 4 born in London & 4 in Sussex
One of these, Ellen married a C A W Martin ( my grandparents)
I never knew these grandparents as they both died before i was born. I do have a couple of living Martin relatives, but they don't remember much due to the war years. As mentioned above have found a new relative who luckily is researching the Brown family.

Check to see whether your contact messages have been opened.......

If you want help with research............post some details

Yes I have tried that and will keep monitoring it but wondered if there was a quicker response method as sometimes no one replies

Garry, I assume you have checked other members' trees for matches by using search box above?

I am looking for anyone researching the same families as me. Does anyone know a way to do this? On another site which had a Public Members Tree (not subscriber) I found such people.
I have found a couple of members, one is a relative but researching different branches to me. One line is the same but i'm only one step behind them on that line and it seems to be a brick wall after that. The other member gave me info on the Brown family (great stuff) although it did not link us (email only).
All this got me thinking I must have living relatives somewhere, distant or otherwise.
I have discovered recently a relative I never knew I had, hence the research.
