My neice's partner  and I were looking for the same relatives.  It was very helpful he seemed to know more about my family than I did.  Glad I found the site

Contacted a gentleman for a tree I found on GenesReunited. We spoke on the telephone, and in conversation he asked if I had come across rootschat - he said the help he had received had far outweighed the help he had found anywhere else, on any other site.
Have to say I agree wholeheartedly. And, the bonus is its free as well!
Have recommended it to my friends, relatives and family history society.
