I admit im clueless about computers.  Whenever i find myself on Ancestry.co.uk a message comes up saying blah blah causing your script to run slowly if it continues your computer will be come unresponsive.  At this point it has stopped doing anything.  Why is this? Is it me, my computer or what?  Easy answers please! lol

Ireland / My irish gt grandfather
« on: Tuesday 20 March 12 09:37 GMT (UK)  »
Im looking for any info on my great grandfather, Simpson Moore. All i know is he was born in Ireland about 1864.  He was single and living in Scotland in 1901. Cant find him on 1911 census but by 1922 he was back in Scotland, married to Sarah Ann Mellon who may have been irish. Cant find marriage cert. in Scotland.  He died in Scotland in 1938.

Fingers crossed lol
