PM sent redle

If information is sent by PM it does make it difficult for anyone trying to help figure out what's been found, etc. (although details of living people, email addresses, recent family details shouldn't be posted here so in those cases PM is best).
Usually best to post on the boards, as it lets us know exactly what information has been sent and what is still required.  It will also help others who come across this thread via a search engine - which just might bring a relative to help out!
