Isn't that a great piece Graham's put on St Peter's website?  It really gives the full picture of Robert's story and hopefully, might ring a bell with any distant relatives who might see it.

Thank you Graham for putting the whole story up and for your gracious hospitality on Friday.

Thank you Graham yet again. That is a lovely inclusion in the Parish Newsletter, hopefully it may ring a bell. Is there a free local paper in your area? Just curious as we have "The Advertiser" a weekly that is read by many. I just wondred if you had one. I would be happy to contact them if you do!
You are doing a great job. Well done

Morning everybody !........ the sun is shining here ....... hope you have some too !!  :D

I can't remember the name of the reporter at the Echo to ask for permission for RootsChat to reprint the articles here on "RootsChat in the Public Eye"

Would it be possible to ask do you think ?? and also I think it would be nice to reprint the article in St Peters magazine ! ( I sent Graham a PM !! ) if anybody can think where else we've been .... please give Berlin Bob a shout !!  :D :D

Enjoy your day !

Hello Michel, Long time since we had a response. I wondered if there had been anything in the "Echo" regarding the Grave.
I look forward to a speedy conclusion to this tale, your quest, with the ultimate finale of all meeting around Roberts Grave.
We can do no more than wait until Annie and yourself decide to come to Liverpool. I shall look forward to that day with great excitement and pleasure.
best wishes
