The YTG Scavenger Hunt. Everybody Welcome To Join In
« on: Thursday 04 October 07 00:48 BST (UK) »
We're going to have a Scavenger Hunt where one thread a week (on a Wednesday) is devoted to trying to knock down a wall for one of our members.  There are some brilliant minds in RootsChat and we're hoping by pooling resources we can help each other to find the missing piece of the jigsaw.   

If you'd like to join us you're more than welcome, send me a PM and I'll add your name to the list and of course you can just join in anytime


At the end of the Scavenger Hunt each topic will be moved to the relevant board so the information found will be available to others who come along, I will amend this post giving the link to which board.

All Scavenger Hunts will be in the Common Room and on a Wednesday  Only when they are finished will they be moved.


 Please PM me with the details of the person/information/place/address you'd like to find no later than the Monday prior to your allotted week.   Good luck everybody and have fun.


    The full list is on page 10 and 12 of this thread.
