Congratulations Gardener, great news, I was over the moon at the weekend just because I'd found a photo of a dead rellie so can only imagine how you must be feeling having found a live on. :D

Terrific news Gardener  ;D ;D ;D

I can understand your excitment. I'm still up in the clouds after finding great grandma  - at long last - under a different name on the 1881 census.

Congrats on a living rellie!

Tough one!!!

Win 2 million on the lottery or break down a major brick wall.

Perhaps that should be a new survey topic.

Just think of all the researchers you could hire for two million quid   ::) -  Me?  I'll take the money  ;D

Congrats  Gardener:  I was lucky enough to find several 2nd cousins and just met a live one with two live brothers in Australia.  Of course e-mail him and the great one in Shetland. ;)

Hiring researchers might take some of the fun out of our searching.  This has been a great month for me finding more cousins and a GG Uncle who fought in the Riel Rebellion in Canada.  As I live in Canada, this connection to history has me all agog.  Cheers all and keep searching
