Hello, debu,

Many thanks for that helpful information on the Gallwey family. I haven't posted much recently and am not always able to respond immediately to replies, but I do appreciate any help and positive contributions from other members.

J.

I suspect that the OP is searching for details of lawn tennis players. It's a shame so many people have done lots of searching to help for information that isn't really wanted and the OP doesn't bother to respond to direct questions at times  ::)

I don't mind why someone requests information as long as it is not for commercial reasons and I also do not believe that any research is wasted.

Many times I have seen someone post on Rootschat for the first time because they got a search engine hit on an ancestor's name.  This would not necessarily happen if we didn't flesh out the families when searching, or give probable suggestions.
