This is my first post hope it works I came across a post on here when tracing my family history . Posted by mansfieldterrier. My great great grandfather was Robert Allison born in butterknowle County Durham in 1829. It looks like same family mt. Was looking for. As butterknowle was part of cockfield in 1800s. Hope someone can help or I can help them. As I've got Allison family from 1841 up to 2010. Gaz.

The first few times on Rootschat can be a bit daunting for some people.
In the beginning (2004) it was a lot easier as we didn't have the sheer mass of topics and replies. As of writing we have just under 4 Million postings so we need a structured layout to make it easier to find topics of interest.
But don't worry about that for the moment, just bear these two points in mind:
1) To start a topic:
- Either go to the board where you wish to post, or,
If you are not sure where best to post, simply go to the Beginners board
- click on the button
at the top or bottom of the page, and
- ask your question

If the moderators feel your topic will get more coverage on a particular board, then they will move it to that board.
2) To reply to any topic,
- just click on the
-Button at the beginning or end of any topic
You can find helpful information to most questions in the
-Pages.
If you can't find an answer to your question(s) there, just start a new topic on
the "How to use Rootschat" board: http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,287.0.html
Rootschatters are generally very friendly and helpful, so don't worry about it, if you feel your contribution is not 100% perfect - we all learnt here "by doing" :)
By the way, we don't have an "official" site-map of the various boards, but here's a good way of finding out what we have:
- Just click on the
-Button at the top of every page.
The search page shows a list of all the available boards and sub- or child-boards.

Enjoy Rootschat :)
