Rootsweb
« on: Monday 20 August 18 16:43 BST (UK) »
Having just had an email asking where my Towcester website is, I thought maybe I'd better post something!

Rootsweb has been down since December, and my site along with it. While some of it has been re-instated, individual sites are only now slowly being returned. I have requested mine, but no joy so far.

It can still be accessed at The Wayback Machine,
http://web.archive.org/web/20170602155004/http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com:80/~towcesterfamilies

It can take a long time to load, be patient!

The trees are at https://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=towcester , but are now sadly out of date, as it is not the last iteration which was returned to there. I do have further information, and can still answer questions, but my email address has been removed from there as well.

It's been a very frustrating few months!

Norman Tew’s Stoke Bruerne site, which has been removed from the web, is also available at the Wayback Machine,
