On the basis of my reply #42 - sorry I don't know how everything got into the blue room - the other day a 30 year old hunk told me I didn't look old enough to have bought timeshare 30 years ago!!
You can imagine my OH's reaction to that!   :D   ;D

PS  And no, he wasn't trying to sell me more timeshare   ::)

Funny my son is your age and not the slightest bit interested in his ancestors although did show a little bit when I found his wife's maiden name was my GG Grandmother's

I was always quite interested but mostly the last 10years really :)

I am 38.  And I get strange looks when I go into research rooms!  I'm obviously far too young to be into family history :-)

Does age really matter once you're over 21????  Its never been something that bothers me.
I don't think I ever look at anyone's profile either.
Johnson, Crankshaw, Burdett, Shaw, Dawson/Dulson, Whitebread/Whitbread, Drane, Hyett, Holtaway, Thompson, Bodell, Livermore, Gee, Vernon, Smith......the list goes on....and on...and on....

@ Lisa .....age doesn't matter at all, just unusual for geneology research ..in my opinion,,,,I say go for it and you'll have many many years of fun ;D

I never think to check profiles either, occassionally I have for one reason or another but not the norm.
