If it is a serious researcher who has made a mistake I would contact them. If it is clearly a work of fiction I stay well away from them so they nare not tempted to copy more of my genuine info. I have an American fiction artist who has one of my Northumbrian relatives who died in WW1 in her tree with US parents and birthplace. I know he is mine and he is English. He was born in Amble, has a headstone there and I have his widow's penny in my cupboard. Not planning to tell the plagiarist that though.

Recently I found 6 trees which had my great grandfather in them, and all had his parents wrong (they were born after him!!!) and when I contacted them all to let them know of the error, they all denied having him in their tree.  I have put this down to a glitch on Ancestry, and now I just ignore people who have the wrong information.  I know that my information is correct so I reckon it's up to them if they want to continue with wrong information in their trees.

Thanks!  I've done it.   Little things please me these days lol   

The milk float and the chink of the bottles placed on steps in the very early hours of the morning, when you knew you could turn over and have another sleep.

Actually, we do still have a milkman who comes down our road to visit a couple of houses.  Until fairly recently he did use an electric float and I would occasionally hear it at about 3am, and it would take me right back to my childhood.  Unfortunately he now uses a 4x4 which doesn't have the same effect!

I miss the electric float too.  We lived near the Co-op dairy, so that was a familiar sound.  Takes me right back {sigh}

Having read this again I do wonder just why he'd had 18 housekeepers!

Lol, yes I did wonder myself!
