I started my research when i was 20, for emigration reasons. I enjoyed it very much so i kept up with it. It cost me a fortune back then without a computer and the help of all my RC friends. I am now 58 and still done know everything about searching as i have only had a computer for a few years.

In the 80-85 age range we have six Rootschatters but I'm at a loss to understand this obsession with ages.  By the way, just in case anyone's interested, I was born at 10.15am on 12 June 1927  ;D
Can anyone remember how to work out which day of the week one was born ?
I'm desperate to know whose child I am   ;D ;D

I was born at 3:25pm on Tuesday 26th July 1988  ;D

P.S and definitely not 'full of grace'... I reckon I was born a day early, lol

I was born on a Wednesday (at 3.00pm, February 12th, 1986) but I'm not full of woe. ;D

I reckon I qualify for both titles....oldest and youngest!

Today I feel about 90 (I'm not!).

The rest of the household (ladies) say I've the mentality of a five year old.

Hi Hume

Nah - you're elderly!  ;D

Ryan started on Rootschat when he was about 14 (18 now) I believe.

Another Rootschatter is only just 11, although she joined cos her grandma was a member (RIP Nessie  :'( )

some of the birthdays reflect much more senior members

I am also bonny and blithe etc

 :D :D

I started when it looked like I wouldn't be able to have any descendants of my own, so I thought I'd research my ancestors.

I was wrong about the "no descendants" - my son is 12 now!  :)

I was 28 when I started researching 14 years ago.
