I stumbled across it and have never looked back! ;D

Hope you didn't hurt yourself when you stumbled ... 

Don't really remember how I found this site six months or so ago (where does the time go). What is important is that I found it.

Hi, Jonesy...welcome to rootschat....Just had a look at your older postings, and see that with more specific information, you will get more specific results....Now that you've been away from them for a year....just go into your own profile and read all your posts, and add new replies with a specific question...and you will get results on many, i am sure...this lot are really super and you will be nothing short of amazed  ( use exact names, middle names also if you have them, and year of birth, etc.... I noticed one query has no name on it at all....and it looks to be an interesting query when you add the information needed)

Happy New Year you wonderful bunch of rootchatters!!!!
J.J.  ;) :D ;D

Can't remember for the life of me.

But isn't it just like so many rambles down genealogical alleyways on the internet?...  Afterwards, you have no idea how you got there, but it seems like you couldn't possibly have lived without it before?

Hi

I found Rootschat via my husband. I do spend lot of time in the Chatroom - if you haven't been in and are stuck with something do come in. They have been a great help to me. Done loads of lookups and provided lots of links.

There is a wider world than Scotland's people!

Love the site!
