Wow, thanks for all the replies, it has certainly given my some inspiration. I haven't looked at my family tree for over 2 years since my nan died and I am getting the pull to jump back in.
I think I will stick to the branch that intrigues me the most, which is my maternal grandfathers branch, and see where I go from there.
Many thanks again, and I am sure I will be posting more questions on here again.
Thanks Tricia xxxx
