These people may still be alive and Rootschat discourages posts including living people. dollylee


There has always been a confusion between tracing the Living and the dead. Genealogy website trace ancestors not descendent's.There are special websites for tracing the living,to put it in a nutshell genealogy websites go up not down ;D ;D

Hi again, ok, new to this, and can't find my way, how do I know if I've got a reply to my message? I just know I'm going to feel really daft (Scottish word) when I'm told how simple it is, saying sorry in advance. duh!

I knew the name of a second cousin and using Ancestry found her marriage and then children. Luckily through Genes I was able to find her and we are now in contact exchanging family news It was a lucky break through.
