Thanks Gill. I'll have a go!

I can only get as far as putting a payment card details in! As I'm still reeling from my bank account being hacked I don't want to do this? I assume that's the end of rootschat for me then?

Payment Card Details??

This is a free site.

Maybe someone will join in to help - fingers crossed.

Some link to "My Heritage?" A separate organisation I presume. ANYWAY, Thank you Gill for your replies. I'll persist with Rootschat and see if I make progress. Watch this space!

Hi Gillibrite

I have sent you a personal message, can you see it?

There is a button at the top of the screen which says "My Messages", there should be a (1) next to it.

My great grandparents were German Pork butchers in Bradford. The name was Johann Friederich Korner and Friedericke Wolfarth. Johann was known as Frederick and came from Neidernhall in the same region most of the pork butchers came from. There were other Korner in Bradford as well. I know something of their lives here but not much and nothing before they came.
