Hi.  Are you ready for this?  We may be in a magazine next.  I gave each of the prior reporters a prepared statement and it had your chat names in it (those of you who gave me permission).  Wish they would have mentioned it.  Maybe the next one will catch it.  All of you certainly deserve the credit.  I'll let you know which magazine if it happens.  Best wishes, Diane

Hi everyone.  Rootschat didn't make tv but it was in the newspaper and I think on the radio.  We had a wonderful time and it was so great finally meeting some of the people that made it happen.  Wish you could have all come to the party.  We had a great time.  We did go to our mum's old house and after we explained why we were there the people invited us in and we got to see the house.  They were lovely.  The house was wonderful.  I just dissolved in tears to see where she grew up.  I checked the Walsall book last night. Didn't find any relatives but the book was great.  Thank you for the lovely gift (and the map).  Everyone was so sweet.  Maybe more of you can join us for the next visit or come see us in the US.  Hugs to all and thank you once again.  Diane xxx

You're right. I still  have so much to do.  Can't imagine what it will be like.  Thank heavens for Facetime.  It's been wonderful seeing the family and speaking with them.  It's all thanks to your site!  Hugs to all, Diane

My new grand niece is with the BBC and she told them.  They thought it was a wonderful story but said it should be covered locally.  So I guess we might be in the Walsall paper.  Diane

MargP.  Hope you got my PM that of course you can bring your hubby.  Looking forward to meeting you both.  My niece said we're going to be met at the train by reporters.  That will be interesting.  Is it OK if I mention this site and give all of you the credit for finding my family?  Diane
