Do you have an interesting family tree story?
« on: Tuesday 19 July 11 17:13 BST (UK) »
Hello

I am a feature writer and I would like interview women who have traced their family tree/ancestry and found out something really interesting or something that has changed your life in some way.

If you would like to share your interesting story, please send me a message or reply to my post with an email address for me to contact you on and I'll be sure to get in touch and give you more details.

Many thanks.

Hi, CKB

To guard against "spamming" we don't display email addresses, and you need to make three posts before the personal messaging system works.

Just thought you ought to know!

Good luck with your writing.

This should be my third post so hopefully this means people may now contact me if they wish via the messaging service. Fingers crossed!

Many thanks

Are men excluded about making contributions about their female ancestors? Off the top my my (bald) head I can think of at least three who could be interesting.

Don't hold your breath!  Most people are a bit wary of journalists at the moment ............ can't think why ::)

Well, that is a shame. Please don't tar us all with the same brush.

Well, I'm sure you appreciate why we're a little cautious at the moment.

Can you give us a few more details?  What is the feature?  Where would it appear?
