Hello, I just joined
« on: Thursday 04 June 09 21:46 BST (UK) »
Hello, I thought I would introduce myself.  I live in the United States, but I can trace four branches to England and one to Wales.  My Mother's people were all coal miners and my Father's were into farming.  I have been doing genealogy research for about 7 years.  Sometimes it gets frustrating, but there are other times that I make an incredible discovery.  It's a pastime of highs and sometimes lows.  I love history and I guess that carries over into my family history research.  Well, that's all for now........ ;)

Hi Annette,

Welcome from me too! What counties is your research in?

At the top of the page you will find "surnames". You can enter your names here and also check to see if you have connections with anyone else.
