Hi
After reading the above posts, I must be very lucky as all of the Family are keen Genealogists - even my 5 year old, bless her.
We all love looking around old churchyards, especially if its one that may contain some of our ancestors - kids have a competion to see who can find the first one, the most, etc.
They like taking pictures of unusual stones and images on stones, which they use when doing family history at school (basic family trees) and often accompany me when I am surveying, transcribing and photograping a churchyard. My son (10) loves it best when the churchyard is near a railway line as he is train mad, and wants to be an engine driver when he grows up. I can remember having that dream some 50 years ago.

Well done to everyone who replied to Pam it has been great entertainment reading them.
We attended a family wedding and hubbie couldn't believe i was taking my printed (1.5ins thick) book with me. When I got there I suddenly realised I knew more about the dead than the living, so currently ringing everyone for their info even more glazed eyes and bored voices.

Chuckle..
My family love the output but not the search. My younger sisters, are hilarious. Y'see I'm a scientist but they are artists so we have different views of how it all works. One of them has created a quilt and she is embroidering the tree on it and give her the names only hyen I'm completely sure of the connections.
She did this whole branch of GREENs in Lochmaben - a good 20 odd people. BUT I discovered fairly recently I'd made a boob! There were 8 Robert Greens in the village all born within 3 years of each other and got the wrong one!
So the glazed look has gone to venom as she unpicked it... 
Anyway, Good luck with your asearches off to shop..
Pam

I'll check out the archives - thanks.
This line went on hold a few months ago - I find research in England and Wales a bit annoying, the certs are so pricey. To top that I broke a major wall down in my Scott/Carruthers line so I've been working on that.
Maybe it's time to pick teh Phythians back up
Thanks for the tip.
Pam

Cheers Munchies. It's such a strange name I reckon they'll all link up eventually so that's excellent to add to the files.. Thanks.
Though you guys are doing more than me on this lot - I'm shamed

Hi
sorry no Phythians in my mlfhs books, but i will keep an eye out for them 
My other half is amazed that i know more about his family than he actually does and he sometimes looks interested when i find another one!
