Finding an old thread
« on: Tuesday 12 April 11 15:43 BST (UK) »
I started a thread way back in 2006 entitled 'Illegitimate Child'.  I would dearly like to find it again and post a link to it or bring it back to the top for another RootChat member to see.  It was in the West Yorkshire section.  Please can somebody help me to find it.  The member I would like to see it is connected to me and would be interested to read it.

Quite simple. Click on Search button at top of page, put silas in user name box and illegitimate in search for box-

It was actually called Illegitimate birth
