How to Use RootsChat (Please don't post requests here) / Why is it so complicated to engage with roots chat discussions
« on: Friday 24 March 17 12:36 GMT (UK)  »
I am new to the site and I know there are existing members that are my extended family (which I have just found on roots chat) but I can not figure out how to use this site.  I have replied to a discussion to first engage with them but I cannot see there other relevant posts.  I was told I need to do three posts to see stuff but I don't have anything to post, other than the discussion I mentioned.  This site seems overly complicated, can anyone explain ???

Australia / Moody Family
« on: Sunday 19 March 17 04:54 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I am new to this site and trying to figure out how to use/post on the forums to research my family tree.  I am after some information about one of the Moody's.  Specifically is Eleanor/Leaner/ Lena May Williams (nee Moody) the same person as Virginia Williams (nee Moody).  We have records showing both first names.   I am Virginia’s grandson, son of her eldest daughter Jean Madden-Hallett (nee Williams).  So I knew her name as Virginia when I was a boy.  Recently we have found records, such as her husband’s (David Evan Williams) military enlistment with next of kin Leanor Williams and Jean’s birth record with Lena May Williams as her mother’s name.  So we are looking for info to shed some light on whether this is name change or is it a different person.  We are thinking it is same person using different names but we would like to settle on this before we continue on the family tree.
Cheers
Paul
