Majm, Merlin, sparrat (not sure of spelling), Ruskie, Billy Blue, km17 (I think that is correct) ..... Plus more I can't remember.  And, yes, I confess to "stalking" as well as they all give good tips and ideas on alternative sources and interesting ways to attack brick walls.  All freely and generously given. Fabulous.

Yes .   of course you can nominate yourselves and wear a sticker with pride and choose your own prize .

Also let the above people know they have been nominated and can claim their prizes next time they are in Leicester or if I.m anywhere near them ....or by post !

I will make a note of all mentioned tho if you're not on here it may just be because your fans don't use this forum !

Very surprised to see my name here, among such illustrious company.
I don't think I deserve it, but thank you cocksie! :-*

May I be so bold as to add Cando to your list? She is one of the great Australian helpers. ;)

I m not forgetting silly dogs.shelyesque and challenger.got lots of help from them when I was stuck

And Sandra is brilliant she deserves a star prize definitely .in Sweden people give certificates for all sorts of achievements ..I.m no good at that but anyone fancy designing intern we award them on here simple case of printing them out .!

I.m going to try earning my "bringing genealogy to people who may not normally have access due to reading or language limits "

Like Ruskie, very surprised to see my nomination!  Can't hold a candle to MAJM & Cando, for Aussie help, as I said earlier.
Thanks to everyone who helps, and to those who appreciate their help.

I, personally, think that the majority of RootsChat members deserve a nomination.

Most of us are willing to help those who are unable, for various reasons, to carry out their own research.   I have helped people from New Zealand, Australia etc in their quest for English information, and have, in turn been helped on my overseas queries.

It's a give and take ideal  :) :)
