Thank you so much - much appreciated

Edit: My research has dwindled to a halt over the past many years & a friend asked me about this one. other than the Manchester archives, I had forgotten where to look!

Very basic English name - definitely not there. (I searched as well,  via the army number once I had the nominal roll record) I'm looking for reasons, rather than asking someone else to do the search.

thanks

I worked on the polls in the 1980s, 1990s & people still came in and asked if "abc" was still on the rolls as he died last year. Often times that person was still there. We used to annotate the paper record & it would be checked later by the returning officer.

I think today, there is much more matching with registry death records, but back in 1911, not so much.

Yes, I have someone I ignore, but you still see their posts, with a message that ‘you are ignoring this member’.

I like highlighted posts. I use purple, simply because I don’t like red. Even when I was teaching I refused to use red and it got me into strife with more than one Principal. 

The use of colour and underline is simply highlighting, as is the use of ‘bold’, nothing to do with shouting.

When someone is attacking your posts - and writing pages and pages of nonsense to do it - using RED INK is shouting - just like using upper case. It is not like bolding or using a colour other than red.

My question was answered succinctly by Dawn M. There was ZERO need for another poster to add any further information nor  to follow me around and continue to shout at me in red type.

Is there a method on this forum to ignore/not see posts from a particular poster?

thanks
