Hello Everyone, 

Just found this site purely by accident, have had a look around and have registered. 

I have only been doing my family tree for six months and didn't really know what to expect, I have traced part of my family (mother's side) back to 1861 census. Father's side is a little more difficult, not having older rellies to talk too.

I thought I would post a message just to say Hi and look forward to more posting.

Hi Joe
 
Thank You for your warm welcome.

I've noticed that you have connections with Huddersfield, so do I, I have living rellies there.
