I see the usefullnes of posting surname interests on this site, but don't hope for too much. I have had over 1,000 names on genesconnected for 3 years and only had about 6 pure matches from their database of 75 million names.

Hi,

compared with most of you I am pretty new to this and can  handle only one name at a time.

All us newbies who can only handle one name at a time, should start a special group..lol...ie, 'we are overcome with info help....'   I for one hope its going to get easier..its the cross matching everything     ahh!! I need a cupa..and choky biscuit.......Summer

I've put on 6 and thought that was enough for now, by the way if someone replies to me will I get a message in my normal e-mail server rather than having to visit were the surnames are, and how do I get there?

Hi,

compared with most of you I am pretty new to this and can  handle only one name at a time.

If everyone added just the one name that they are researching it would nearly double the size of the SIT.  Lets have your one on there please.

However I would recommend at least adding the wives down your main line.

Your user-name in the SIT is also a link to your profile, so people can get in touch by sending you a PM.

We all need to add more, as more surnames are discovered in our research anyway!
