Hi Sandra,
Re Posts on the 18th Jan 2012 and 6th Jun 2012.
Many many thanks for helping me with my endeavours. Fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you look at it I have researched a lot of this information already and have worked up a number of families to the same level. I'm turning to your posts in the hope that some of them might recognise a family member and then start emailing me here in Northern Ireland. Ideally since I come from the Irish Shearer side of the family my US cousins might be able to fill in some stateside details.
Is this the only way of moving on, once you have got all the info available on the various sites? I'm at a bit of an impasse at the moment although I thought posting names from time to time on your site might achieve something. Thanks once again.
