I'm 16...and when I started I was 12... which unfortunately means that I am not taken too seriously or as a 'proper researcher' in Record Offices and the like  :(

When I asked my gran how old she was when I was a little girl I got this response

I am as old as my tongue and a little bit older than my teeth


Am now off to look at my profile, cannot remember if age etc., is on there.

But I do agree that country/county of birth would help, especially when people for those who do not live in UK and are completely befuddled by where places are.
