Hi. Thanks Genesreunited. I have been contacted by a cousin whom I never knew existed, which has led to finding other family members on both my parents side. Keep up the good work. A note for all the other searchers who may feel down-hearted when they have been searching for months on end with no results......... DONT GIVE UP. I have been researching my family tree for well over a year, and for almost 10 months of that I hit a brick wall completely. I found myself getting bored and not bothering for weeks on end. Then had one tiny break through. Thats' all it takes. I found an aunt who has been working on our family for 16 years. She's a mine of info, but I would never have continued if it wasn't for Genesreunited.
