Hello Everyone,

Well I took the plunge and did it.  I put together a website and I just want to know what I can improve on.  As this is my first try at doing this, I wonder if someone could take a look and give me the pros and cons.  The address is as follows:

http://attwater.rootschat.net/

Thank you,
Nancy Attwater

Well done Nancy !!

Like the site very much, and loved the photos and record images.

It's amazing how varied individual webpages can be....it's what makes it so interesting.  Mine for instance is completely different.

Hello Mobo & Wellie,

Thank you for the positive comments.  Having never done this before, I had to learn how to write the code from scratch (with the help from the Ironspider website).  Once I got the hang of it, it became rather fun.

Thanks again   Kiss

I popped in to have a look. It was very pleasing on the eye and the clarity of expression was even better Cheesy
It's a shame about your brick wall named Sophia.
I just tried a search of the IGI of anyone named Sophia born 1784+or-5 years. It revealed a few where no surname was given (presumably because the inputter could not read it) eg a Sophia born in Cudham Kent about 1786 and a Sophia Walter born 2 June 1783 baptised 9 July 1783 at Greenwich, Kent...Rainham isn't too far away...but maybe you know about her already

Hi Paul E. & Clincher,

Thank you so much for the positive feedback.  It has encouraged me to continue.  Perhaps some day I may break down that brick wall Clincher.  I am hoping that this website may open a few doors and help me find some more connections.  It's a shame to say but my ATTWATER line is dying out.   Cry  With all my research so far, there are only 3 males that can carry the surname forward.

Thanks again   Kiss
