Vicki


you don't need new researchers ............

you need new records to be available on the internet


Otherwise new researchers will only be able to find what the "old"researchers found ........ and will have wasted their time finding stuff that you already have.


THAT is precisely why the advice from GR is NOT to start more than one thread on any person or family.

Thanks for your help. Genes Reunited has changed a lot, but I am finding my way around. Yes, this is an old thread, but I was hoping for new researchers. Thanks again.
Warm Regards

Hi Vicki,

If you go to 'Search' and then 'Search All Trees' and put your Ancestors detail in you will find others searching the same person.

A number of others are researching Willaim Benskin your 3xGr Grandfather

You can then contact them via Personal Message.

KING is not an unusual name.

Best of luck with your searching. If you need help put a message on the Find Ancestors board.

Best regards,

Stephen

Elizabeth King is 3GGMother she was born 1787 in Leicestershire and married William Benskin. She died 1822. Any of you have the surname of King. I find it strange that they would have that surname. Any of you have any clues to such a surname. Thanks for your efforts.
Warm Regards
Vicki
