I know and I've irritated the living beings around me so I come to you at Rootschat to share my joy!
I just got a letter from my Stepdad I'd asked him what he could remember about his family. I got a reply today. New names, new puzzles this is so exciting...
Has anyone got PHYTHIANs in their tree - if they are in Bidston or Fazackerley, they're mine and I'm coming to reclaim them!!!!!
Tata,
Pam

I got sent to bed at 23:30h for being annoying! But in the hour I was allowed to mix with the living I found my 1881 family and 1901 family - I guess the name PHYTHIAN is a bit easier to find than Hughes in North Wales!
Thanks for your kind words, a couple of look-up requests to come.
Pam

Hi
Couldn't resist having a quick look on the 1891 census for PHYTHIAN
There are 382 people with that surname, about 75% of them seem to be living in Lancashire.
Mouse finger is itching to get amongst them

Funnily enough I noticed 2 marriages of Phythians (on the same day) whilst at the Liverpool record office yesterday. Not much help though as cannot remember exactly where i saw them  Will try to narrow it down when I've sorted out my notes if you like.

Pam,
It seems you are not the only one to get excited, Chris and munchies are getting carried away with your Pythians too.

Hi Pam, I can feel your excitement through the computer cable!!!!! and what a "wicked" surname to be tracing, sure beats Smith or Jones (apologies to Smith's and Jone's in advance!!)
I understand what you mean about non-genealogists!!! Even when they are smiling politely you can see the "glazed" look in their eyes......  That is why we all congregate here, so we know we are not the only one's fixated with our pasts!!!!
Enjoy your new line of research and I am absolutely sure you will have no problems getting help on this site.
Best wishes
Di xx

Hi Pam it was great to read your message and feel your excitement, good luck with the research. Just wanted to say that it was also good reading the replies I thought it was just my family that were afflicted with cloudy looking blank eyes accompanied by an irritating cough!!!

Hi all,
Cloudy blank eyes? Cough?
My hubbie claims I am driving him down the pub more often than he'd like, claims it's the only place he can get a conversation that's not about dead people.

My kids are also fed up of hearing about dead people and my husband who has been vaguely interested went with me yesterday to the records office and was fed up within an hour and wanted to stop for dinner ....I ask you time there is far too precious to eat 
I received the British Vital Records 2nd edition today and his eyes glazed over before disk 2 was in.
he quite likes the finished product of the family tree though just doesn't want to know how I got there.

Teehee.
I took my boyfriend grave walking to Wigton, that was an hilarious day! It was in February. There was torrential downpours interspersed with hailstones and snow. But I packed woolley hats and boiled eggs and after a 5 minute moan he plugged himself into the radio and marched down the rows. He did one half and I di the other. He loved it! Mainly because he found all the graves I was looking for and I found none..
I haven't heard the last of it.

Hi Pam,
I took my husband searching a graveyard some months age, he wandered around, looking bored until I told him who I was looking for. Then he was like a man possessed, looked on every stone, even those I had already read.
We did not find the one we were looking for, and he was really disappointed.
It turned out I had taken him to the wrong church.
Kazza.
