Can anyone help. I want to know that if someone who has posted on the site is no longer a member, does that mean that my message will not be sent to them. :-(

If GR has a current email for them they will still be notified, even if they are not now a paying member. Unless they have deleted their account completely ( in which case you wouldn't be able to send a message anyway )

Researching:
Names: Fishlock, London. Whetman. Keatings from Kerry. The best way of keeping my temper with idiots.

Thanks Rose. Its only been a couple of days since I sent message but had this nagging doubt that if they were no longer a paying member then the mail would not be sent. Thanks for respon lolding. I will try and be patient

Hello SueV and welcome

I have several messages outstanding not having been opened by " members" and so have lots of others on here

What I am really upset about is that I found an absolute surety on here and sent them a post. It was opened almost immediately but no reply back. After a week I sent another just in case something had gone astray. Also opened within an hour or so but nothing. Not even a thanks but no thanks. If members have got their tree here but do not want any contact then GR should know and maybe put a stop on.

Have had my little rant now LOL

Good luck :-D :-D
