Hi, penny.  There are plenty of people here who can help.  What are you trying to do specifically?

Hi pennycakes

We have a 'no living people' policy here so we can only give general help and advice. Names of living people or potentially living people will be removed.

Have you looked at this topic?

Presumably you want to post on the Lancashire Lookup Requests board?

There is a "New Topic" button there, honest!

Here's a link to Lancashire look-up requests

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/lancashire-lookup-requests/

Make sure you're signed in, the blue "new topic" button is on the same line as the number of pages (currently 197) on the right side of the screen

Hi francettealbin

Welcome to Rootschat 

The best way for newcomers is to post a reply on the bottom of the topic you are interested in. You have already posted a reply here so the procedure is exactly the same.

The person who started the topic and those who have joined in should receive an email notification that you have posted there and hopefully come back soon.

Is LordKent the name of the subject or the name of the person who started the topic?

We have a search facility but I couldn't find those terms.

Hope this helps

Perhaps this is the member you are trying to make contact with?

Hi Sharonie2,

Welcome to Rootschat

When you click reply it usually brings up a message box where you can write your reply and then click the button to post your reply.  Obviously a small hiccup if you didn't get one coming up.

Who were you trying to reply to ?
