First I want to crow about my success in researching a friend's tree, in a remarkably short time. She started by wanting to know about her father's family, and now has named ancestors going back to the end of the 16th century. There was a lot of luck involved. That part of Lincolnshire is very well covered by the IGI; and I found no less than 3 people on genesreunited who were distantly related to my friend and could supply more information. From one I've even had transcriptions of 4 wills, all the way from Australia.
But now what do I do? I can't do any more research without travelling to local records, which is out. And I feel like an addict without a fix. There are no more certificates to be eagerly awaited, no more scouring of censuses, no more running off of tree charts. I feel forlorn and deprived.

How about looking up John Jones born 1819 in Tynywern, Cardiganshire. After that I have more John Joneses and an Ann and Mary Jones or 2. Easier than that Red Room.
