I have the same problem Ponytail.

My husband's mother - Beryl Pansy Davidson was born in Maymyo in 1925 and her parents were born there from British parents but not Military. There were 12 of them altogether and we have managed to find a few of them as they emigrated over here.  There is still family over there as one of my husband's cousins would visit them when  he was younger and fitter.

It would be so much easier if we could just go to a free site and check out what we needed for each country wouldn't it? lol

Do you have any Davidsons, Hutchinsons or Lopezs in your tree for Burma?
