I can see that there are some people wanting info on my Great Uncle John William Arkless I have been trying to reply to albatross but have given up in the end as I must be doing something wrong..... can I get in touch with this person?

Ramshawlass, you need to make another post to be able to use the personal message system, so just say hello in another post, and then try again.

Hi Ramshawlass,

When you reply to a topic (like you have done) the person will be notified by email notification, that is how it works there is no need to have to send a PM too,  as we have members all around the world in different time zones you may need to wait a little longer than a few hours to receive a reply.

Regards

Sarah

Hi
If this gets to Ramshawlass I have just sent a reply to your message but it cannot be delivered because your message box is full.
I think I have several photos of your family you will be interested in. If you can let me have an e mail address I will reply and send copies of the photo. As said in my reply my Auntie Beaty Snowball is I think the niece of John William Arkless. I have his Victory Medal from WW1.
Regards

Good morning,
Yes you are correct Beatrice married John Snowball and she was the daughter of my Great Uncle Irvin and his wife Isabella. I think Beatrice had brothers Thomas, Frederick and a sister Annie. They lived in Gladstone St and Grey St. I’m sorry I can’t read my private message from you so I don’t know if you asked me anything else. I need to have posted a couple of times to prove that I’m genuine which is just to protect everyone. Than you for replying to me.
