No worries about the non-notification; we can keep an eye on the recent releases.  :)


Minniehaha.

I second that, there is always someone who is eagle-eyed to spot the new ones.

Thank you for the new additions - Hauraki Plains I hope will give me a little snippet or two.

Cheers

Congratulations :D  Just goes to show that taking time out from digging, and having patience, you will finally be rewarded when they want you to find the information.

Pleased for you Lu, you have earned a break in your own research, considering how much you contribute to the research of other members.

Papers Past also appreciate the feed back that lets them know, that all their diligent work put into going digital, is so worth while.

Thanks ... always nice to be able to share a good news story.   :) 
This particular "now-solved" one, has though just about cost me, my kids inheritance ... but think how much "richer" they'll be, for having a more complete family tree.   ;D   ;D
