	You will need to send for the marriage cert of George and Agnes to find out their fathers names. What you need to do is keep looking back at this, to see what info has been suggested and NOT wait for a telephone call. Your telephone number should be delete soonest - its not needed. Please delete soonest or someone woll ask GR to remove it, and they will probably delete your whole request

	Go to 'search'.........click on 'search all trees' in the dropdown. Then send a message to the other GR member who apparently has him in her tree

	When you do send a message I would suggest that you delete the automated "can I see your tree" message that is there and write your own outlining who you are looking for.
