Any chips in a brick wall? any 'throw up your hands in despair or delight' moments? Any trails you are following having found new records? Or alternatively have you given up entirely? |

Funnily enough Rose I was just doing some online whilst watching the rugby. |

Almost given up, Rose. Hated new tree format and it put me off and haven't done any since July. |

I am intending to go and look at the outward passsenger lists a bit more, and did have what I thought could be a flash of inspiration the other day about a missing baptism ( Ireland) but it didn't help. |

I run 10 trees in total, not all mine...lolol so when I get stuck I'll hop onto another tree for a week or two. Then I have quite a few branches that belong to other people that I check on each month. |

A bit half hearted but usually look up one or two things a day. Like Jax often do trees for friends. |

Yes! Working on my own tree all the time. Always something else to find. Have been working for weeks with the Warks Electoral roles on Ancestry. I've hundreds in my tree from Birmingham. |

Just tinkering round the edges at the moment but my paternal ancestors came from Devon and I know there is a lot of stuff in Devon Record Office. AND later in the year OH and I are being treated by a relative and partner to a week in Devon as a Golden Wedding present. The relative and I are planning some time in Devon Record Office so I'll probably come back all enthusiastic again. Isn't that a great present? |

For many years I have been waiting for evidence to link in my possible 3 x great grandfather, Thomas, who is probably the father of my 2 x great grandfather Henry. |
