Just had to tell someone

[Mumsie2131]

I feel guilty that I found all my gt gt grandparents comparatively easily and have recently found all the females maiden names, just short of a few deaths.
Good luck everyone

No guilt necessary Mumsie. We all have our brickwalls at different places. Some of us get lucky on certain branches and struggle with others. I started researching one side and went back many generations quite quickly. I have another branch where I can't get past the gg grandparents. One is Irish and the other is from outerspace  (or so it seems). And I have been working on them for 18 years, on and off.

Great news Skymoo 

I have more that a few dead ends. I go back to look at them every so often to see what I can find as every day new stuff is put on the internet and you never know I might get lucky one day   

Then there's my Irish lot...... Hmmmmmm....I try not to dwell on them too much
