hi,
i had a look there today, very interesting.but like you, couldnt see where to join.
altho much of the information pages they have dont look like html until you hover mouse over it, then takes you to new page.
there definatley is a lot of data that is accesable with literally hundreds of names / families etc..
a mystery [no webmaster either]  ???

jaq

i like a challenge, there must be a way in  ;)

Hi!

This Web Family site has been going on for a long time, of people trying to find out how to log in.  On the main page there is a section where you can e-mail them, but getting an answer is another matter.
When the site was first running, I rember logging in, but the only extra info is if there was the date of birth of the person, which now appears on the St. Catherines Index on the death records. Apart from that there was nothing more. I have tried logging in since, but had no joy, tried e-mailing them, along with lot of people on the Genes Reunited site, still no joy.
Apparently the two people who the site belongs to, have two other sites online. I am not sure what they are, but I think one was to do with insurance, and the other a financial site.
Think most people have now given up with the site.
