Hi xin, I agree totally, I remember when I started researching my tree, I put my Great Grandfather's name into a search engine and the first result was a thread on Rootschat about his Grandson.
To be honest nearly everything I have found out is due directly or indirectly to what I have learned or been advised about on Rootschat and I am forever gratefull to it's members.
Also I have come into contact with some very nice people while using it.

RootsChat helped me lay some ghosts and prove some family myths were actually legends.   Very much appreciated!

I'd go so far as to say that RootsChat will always help - in some way or another!
