Hi Again
It seems I am hitting the wrong button and sending the posting before I am finished.
I think your all hitting on all 8 cylinders, it sure looks like you have got the right track.
Speaking for myself and the rest of my siblings we are thrilled. The only word to come close to describing the feelings.
And Gadget I think a dinner is in order.
Will have that on the agenda when you hit Canada.
I will be getting together with Genie in the next day or two, seem to have so much going on right now.
She will help me put this in order.
Take care
and Thanks again
Willys son
Roger

Hi Everyone -

I am Willie's son's sister - at least one of them - and I also live in the U.S.  I want to add my thanks to everyone for all of the efforts and time spent on searching for information regarding our father and ancestors.  I agree with my brother, we are thrilled.  We are looking forward to receiving news that the right family has been found and of course, the proof in birth/marriage certificates, etc.  And Gadget, if Willie's son promises you dinner while you are in Canada, I hope it will be at his home.  It will be a better dinner than you will eat in any restaurant.  Trust me, I know.

Hi Everyone 

Today, we have received the marriage cert. of Charles Wood & Ann Kate Trott. Many thanks to Gadget.

The quest for Willys Son's ancestors continues .....

Please see topic:- http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,287716.0.html

I thank each and everyone of you who have helped so much.
I think Roger has the hang of things now so it's over to him.

As the quest has shifted back in time to the U.K. I am going to lock this thread.

Thanks Team Canada.

Good morning.
My great granddad was James Charles woods. He came to Canada with his brother and parents. His mother died and the boys were placed for adoption. My granddad did not want to be adopted like his brother because he felt his dad was coming back. He married my great grandma Maude. Until last night I only knew the last name of the adoptive family. So words can not tell you how thankful I am for everything I have read so far..I would love to hear from others in the family to put more of this together. Thank you again

Hi Girl 

Welcome to Rootschat   

Most of the people in this topic haven't been online here for ages but should receive an email notification that you have posted and hopefully come back soon.

If they don't you could try sending hem a personal message but both chatters need a post count of 2 and above, some don't have that.

Maybe though once you are in contact with one, your details can be passed on.

Hope this helps.
