Well, I can definitely say that I am not 'of a certain age'......

I am of an 'uncertain age'.... when I wake up in the morning, I am uncertain about so many things.... the day of the week being the first  :)

Seriously though, what is so great about this hobby is that we have such a mixture of ages, occupations, interests, political beliefs, religions, technical savvy, nationalities, etc, but we all have one thing that unites us.... an interest in our ancestors.  I came to this forum knowing very little about how to go about tracing my ancestors, and I've learned so much.  I try to help others as much as I can, but I still have a lot to learn.

RIP 1949-10th January 2013

Best Wishes,  Nick.

I totally agree...but why wouldn't you want to help as i have had help finding things i never thought i ever would, thanks to other people...Its been amazing to say the least..And that YAY moment you get when you find someone is just as good when you are able to help someone have that moment as well...also to know that you are not the only one beating your head against a brick wall is somewhat comforting...sad but comforting..I have also made some wonderful friends in my short time on this site....so to pay it back you bet!!!!
Oh and yes sadly the age thingo does help  ::)
Thanks all
Sally

Griff ..... I was a student of Gil's for 5 years from the age of 10 to 15 & I studied Clarinet & Sax with Gil until the sad demise of his wife Nora and then eventually Gil died himself ...

My uncle Kenny Clarke used to play for the Southampton All Stars (Glenn Milller Band)
both my Uncle and Gil were arch rivals at times & yet I studied with Gil for 5 years ...

Kind regards Dean Elson

I admit to being of a certain age, but I am currently helping someone and I am getting as much pleasure from that as I do when I find my "own".

The RC community has helped me previously and now I am retired, I have a bit more time, and am feeling a bit more confident  to be able to help others.

The added bonus is that I discovered Nanny Jan and I have a great grandmother in common, so I might find other relatives along the way!
