I found the site in 2007 and was a regular in the chat room. As my tree grew I didn't use it so often. Now I only use it for brickwalls.  Mainly searching England & Wales. I have not found any Scottish or Irish ancestors. I do have a couple of lines untouched as yet. Hugenots and Walloons. Champelovier from France but I can't find the link across the channel.  Du Soleil from Belgium too. One day I might make the effort. John Champelovier may or may nor have been born in England about 1740. Jean Du Soleil was born in England 1718.  One day..........
Allen(Dorset),Barker(Essex), Batham, Burris, Champelovier(London, Clark (Suffolk), Clay (London), Elliott (Wilts), Faith (Sussex), Hawes (London), Heinemann (Germany),  Hussey (Dorset), Mason (London), Myers (Yorks/Lancs), Parker (Yorks), Phillips(Hamps),  Smith,(Wilts) Wingate (Sussex) , Wiseman, Townson Yorks), Want(Wilts) and more

Forgive me if I am  on  incorrect page/topic...  But,  I just  stumbled  on  to this  page  to  realise  that it  must be  at  least  twelve years, possibly more  since I posted  here.   I was   researching   some of my  ancestors from Co. Kilkenny and  Kilkenny  Tipperary  borders  area.   Had  quite a  lot of  information,  but  lost interest.  I guess it was  mainly  because of  obstacles  that   hindered  my  search.   Mainly  getting  access to  records.  So I will  just   wander  about and see  can I re-kindle my efforts to  complete  get to know  more  about  the generations that  have  gone  before me.    Aislinn.. :D   ::)   ;)
