Cavan / sub-postmaster
« on: Saturday 10 September 11 22:45 BST (UK)  »
hi there,

i am looking for info on my uncle matthew reilly who i was led to believe was a sub-postmaster in kells in the 1950's.

he married sometime in the late 50's early 60's and apart from this info i know nothing else about him.

my dad was born in dublin and i think my grandparents patrick reilly and margaret carroll married in cavan so i'm not sure if matt was born in cavan or dublin.

any pointers would be appreciated.

The Lighter Side / "UNHELPFUL" REPLIES
« on: Saturday 27 August 11 22:07 BST (UK)  »
i got a dressing down because i commented on a reply to a new rootschatter that i felt was unhelpful.

i have just read another such reply to a new rootschatter and i feel that it could put people off completely if they read responses like this.

this is generally a friendly site and my motto is if you can't say something nice or useful,  don't bother.

what's the point in a negative comment?

i think the moderators should intervene when a "bitchy" reply is posted.

Berkshire / mystery disappearance
« on: Friday 26 August 11 22:55 BST (UK)  »
leslie beale born 1910 maidenhead berks.
brother p born 1908.

2nd cousin (now in australia) has indicated that his pop stated that he was an only son!

there is no record of death or marriage.

as yet i have not checked school records or electoral registers post 1928 as at some time after 1911 the family (those that i can trace) lived in london.

i am planning a visit to berkshire (the berks record office did not reply to my e-mail!) so, any ideas?

why do rootschatter's not refer new researchers to freebmd.org, familysearch.org, tna, lma, nmm, etc initially instead of referring them to subscription websites?
