I am sure it will continue to be of great help - I have already found much more information on here than on a site that cost me dearly to join and doesn't have such friendly people willing to share their expertise. Thank you Roots Chat

Great site - feel like I've been on it for ever  ::)

I've enjoyed helping with the stuff I've got  available and I've met some very nice people indeed....

Unfortunately - got nowhere with most of my research  here :( ho hum... perhaps it's all just too hard  :'(

Hello.
RootsChat has simply been excellent - psychologically and in fact.  Whilst not always getting what i seem to want i have always had responses which have been guiding and sometimes i've had a good find.  Just having such a professionally run site which is more than merely professional is very pleasing to me.  We can all get downhearted and pessimistic but i always find that RootsChat gives something that helps.   Bravo!

 ;D  I think this is an excellent site.  :) :) :)

Members are so helpful.

I posted a query last night (midnight at that) and literally less than 2 mins later, I had my question answered.


You can't beat a service like that

Hi,

I've had loads of help on this site for which I'm very grateful.

It's one of the best things that's happened to me regarding Family History, Rootschat has made it so much more interesting.

Will certainly be voting, - when I can figure out how ???.

Cheers

Barbara.
