Hello,

I'm new here, well actually brand new I registered today.  I see that I have to post two (I think) replies before I can PM someone. 

I'm not sure how often people read this thread, probably not at all really except maybe for newbies and the moderators.  Anyway I'll try, is there any way I can contact an inactive member?  The person I'm thinking of hasn't logged on since November 2010.  If I sent a pm I'm sure he/she would never see it.

For some background, I'm working on the Darracott family history and this member had been working on this for 30 years.  I'm trying to get my father's family tree together for a surprise christmas present.  The Darracott family seem to be completely different from every other branch of my family tree in that they seem to be well off and quite distinguished.

Please pm me if you can help with contacting inactive members and the Darracotts.  thanks for any help.

Hi Brich

Welcome!  :)

Post again to use the PM system, and post on the thread where you found the person - they should get an email notification that there is a new reply on that thread. As long as they haven't changed their email or disabled notification!

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

I do have a question - will replies to anything I post automatically go to me or do I have to change something to say I want a notification when I receive an answer?   For example, how will I know that someone has answered this post??  Obviously new here....

Thanks!!

Apologies for jumping in on this thread.  I have received a pm and know I need 3 posts before I can respond to it.

I would have started my own thread but do not appear to have that facility available.   :)

It shows how long it's been since I registered, I didn't even realise I had not posted before!  So hello to all!
