Hi woodelf2412

If you go to the main page:
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php

you will see that each "sub-board" under a major heading is listed as a child board.

eg. England
then all the county boards are child boards.

Oddly enough I find the term child board a little irritating - I'd rather it was called "sub-board" or similar, then it would be self explanatory.
