Another thing that I am curious about:
If my wife has never had an account with My Heritage then
 how did they get hold of details of her bank account ?

Since the op, my wife has had a considerable amount of communication with the staff of My Heritage.
I overheard some of the conversations. What struck me was the certitude in the manner of the person at the other end of the line as she reeled of several transactions in which my wife was alleged to have made over the past years.
My wife checked through her bank statements and only one, the last one, corresponded with having been debited from her account. After further conversations during which the MH rep was sticking to her lines, and my wife somehow remained civil the case was referred’ to Accounts Dept.

I am making this enquiry on behalf of my wife who tells me that she is too tired to deal with it presently.

Apparently she has received her bank statement and her account has been a debited  for a significant amount payable to My Heritage. This has come as a complete surprise to her as she says that she has had no dealings with My Heritage for at least 10 years’ if at all.

Please can anyone suggest why she has been debited and how they think the problem should be dealt with

A recent consultation by my with a top consultant revealed poly myalgia is x 20 as prevalent in the UK as it is in France.  The reason for this is because the Vikings did not make much of an impression in France whereas they were quite successful at establishing themselves in the north of Britain.
Not so in the south west where hundreds of the remains of Viking raiders in mass graves have been discovered.

For the record. I think  highly unlikely that DNA sampling will ever tell anything specific to those at the  level of ameuter family researcher. It is a nice not so little earner for the likes of Ancestry.

‘Dam lies and statistics.’

Another unintended consequence of Britain’s special relationship with the North Americans.

Be warned.

So was my father.

He frequented the drill hall in the postwar years,and I suspect, may have attended AATC sessions there before 1943.
