On Rootschat you have to post 3 messages before you can send a private message to another member so Edge99 if you just post once more (doesn't matter what you say) you will then be able to send a pm.
Good luck

Thank you.

Hi
Good to hear from you. I do have Fred in my very large tree, as you say they seemed to have a lot of children. I have 10 to first wife and 4 to second. If I have it right think you are my 3rd cousin! Would be good to exchange info if you send me a private message with your email address I am sure we can help each other out.

Hi

Can you tell me how I do this? I can see Messages but the Sent Messages option disappears before I can click on it.

Any help would be useful. Can you send me a private message so I can perhaps reply to it?

Thanks.

I too am descended from Henry and Elizabeth.

They had many children one of which was Conrad born in 1868/9.I believe he changed his name to James who was my G/F's father, Fred.

As seems to be case with this family he had about 16 children! He was married twice, the second time to my G/M.

Would be nice to compare notes.

Thanks.

Hello Emmybeth

My mother is a Mackel. Nice to see we have spread far and wide. It seems to be quite a rare surname. Most seem to have come from Germany and initially settled in Sunderland.

I am currently looking into Ludwig's history. Do you have any information. Looks as if he died in 1872.

Thank you.
