A very kind person in Germany is helping me with some family research, and has said they have found a person on Facebook with the same family name I am looking for. My question is that, as I do not go on Facebook,and know nothing about it, how would I be able to make contact with them,if it is at all possible. Or, would I be better putting a general " looking for" on the TTF board on here and hope for the best.
Would some kind person please advise me what to do for the best.
Many Thanks

You could set up a FB book account just for that reason..Julia follow the instructions and then do a search pass on your email addy and delete the account.

Sorry - preparing food for the OH. Gillian,I have a general post on the TTF board,and Julie with urns has replied that she has tried the name on Facebook with no joy. And yet the person in Germany said it was there. However,I have nothing to lose by putting it on here,at the risk of appearing repetative. The name is - Luke Arnull Riemann in Denmark. I do not know his age.
Many,many thanks again

Awe Julie - God Bless yer for going to so much trouble for me. They could be related, as it is the middle name ARNULL that I am particularly interested in,as if it was a mother's name before marriage to a Riemann. How do I make contact with this person, or he me, without joining Facebook.
Many,many thanks

If you want to make contact you'll need to join, or you can ask someone to pass a message for you with your addy

Just had another look...there were 51 people in Germany with the surname Riemann but none had Arnull in there

And Oliver is the only one coming up with Arnull Riemann in their name

Thanks Julie for that information. Obviously my next question is would you be prepared to do it for me, I willnot be offended ifyou say no, and if so, what is my addy. Dim,dim or what. That's me when it comes to computer terminology.
Many thanks
