Hi Pete,

this seems to be his family in 1901, it maybe worth seeing if you can see the family in 1911 and then trace any subsquent marriage and children for Alberts siblings??

Are you going to be asking about all the people killed in that conflict and buried in that churchyard?

Pete is asking about descendants for all of these men, who clearly were not married, so I'm not sure how he thinks they have traceable descendants

Are you aware of search trees?

Just above the boards

Check there.

Why didn't you say in the first place what you were doing - people spent a lot of time doing lookups which were probably pointless

Pete

Pete Report 31 Mar 2010 18:54

Well I am sorry Its this sort of attitude that stops people from asking for Information on these sites And I did not ask you to spend lots of your time doing lookups

Hi Pete,

Flick possibly didn't understand the work you actually do, and unfortunately very often we get some wanting info and then never bothering to come back... so please try and understand where Flicks coming from.

I would like to add that Pete works for CWGC and the work that they do we know is very often invaluable to us as researches, so please stick with us Pete.
