I put a request for help on Channel 4 Teletext for my elusive grandmother Elizabeth Violet Everett.
One kind gentleman who answered my request did several lookups for me and after a few emails told me to have a look on the Rootschat site.
I had a look around for a couple of weeks,liked what I saw, then put my request into Beginners.
I often wonder who he is, as I only knew his Christian name, and if he recognises himself from the information I've given then..........a big thank you!
I still haven't found my grandmothers birth but have solved quite a few other problems to do with other branches of the families trees.
I have also learned that I'm not the only person who gets a buzz from finding out information for myself and others.............so much so that I have kicked the smoking habit after 50 years!!!
There's not enough time to smoke and RootsChat!!! and the latter gives me a bigger buzz!!
