Yes thank you. It is the family. I put it in one name as he is the only person i am looking for ... It's that not correct?
-
One-Name Studies are for people interested in a particular surname! ;D
There is a sticky on that board:
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=33388.0
And it does say at the top of the board:
For discussions about researching all occurrences of a single name in a specified area.
Please do NOT enter look-up requests for individual persons here !
Never mind! ;D
I have asked a Mod to move this to Cornwall.

Ok Thanks for clarifying. It's some years since I've used roots chat so getting used to the changes :-\
-
Don't worry about the One-Name bit! The Mods have moved this thread to Cornwall.
We have all made the odd mistake - I'm not immune! ;D
And you'll soon get the hang of the way things work. We all suffered the "great change" some time back, and forget how big a change it was?! ::) :-\
A good resource for Cornwall is Cornwall-OPC-Database.org.
It's what I always use when helping RCers with Cornish ancestry.
