Have you got your surename interest on that board
« on: Saturday 05 July 08 00:26 BST (UK) »

Again tonight as i do on a regular bassis,i have been looking for surenames i want that are not there another 3 tonight Colquitt & colquett/ Hayes/ and three last week. The reason is i have lots of burials marriages,some christening mostly in the Liscard wirral area.I try to find anyone that might own these families. i don't think i will do it any more because i dont often find the name i am looking for.I try and help but if members don't put the interest on the board no one can contact them with any information.You could be missing out on finding new rellies.So come on put your interest on the board and help us to help you Wink

In case you can't find it, the link to the surname interests table is found at the bottom of every page.  Just click on "Your Surname Interests"

If you find a surname of interest you can click on the submitter's username which will take you to their profile from where you can send them a personal message.

Don't forget to submit the names in which you are interested.

Well, I've had mine there for a long time.  But so far, it's as useless as Lost Cousins to me.  Nothing - nil - zilch!   Cry  Good idea, but doesn't help us all.  I'd be interested to know how many Rootschatters have actually found rellies through the SIT.  Probably lots.

I've found a couple of rellies. Cheesy

It is  two-way though.  As well as posting your surnames, you need to check occasionally to see if anyone has added surnames that you are interested in.

All mine are there too but  nothing so far. I've had more contacts via my website and informal methods  Sad

I think it's the Joneses that are the main problem  Undecided

I haven't found any rellies but thats because i don't always Contact Jones in just Cheshire.Cheshire is a big place My Jones originated from Wheelock Chester.B.4 moving on to Staffordshire forget where at the moment Undecided Grin so it would be helpful if members put where in Cheshire.I have contacted over time a few Jones in Cheshire but i have always had a reply that no my Jones came from wherever in Cheshire.Which is miles away from Chester where Grandad was born.I have also had replies with queries about all my surenames.So i know members do look in now and then,by the way it wasn't 3 i never found it was 4 the forth being Theoplus Grin

How can I phrase this - glad to know I'm not the only lonely soul who hasn't had any responses from the SIT, sorry others are in the same boat!!  I too have contacted one or two people, who have answered, but there is no relationship.  Still, I do agree - like Lost Cousins, it's important to get the names on there so that there can be matching if anyone who is related comes along!   Cheesy

My names, or at least most of them, are on there but I have had very little feed back from them. Having said that, I have to admit to forgetting to check for others with my names and, when I looked at my list last night, I realised that I haven't filled in place details very well which makes it much more difficult for anyone else to know whether or not there might be a connection. I shall aim to put that right and to check the lists more often.
