Welcome to Rootschat,

If you have found a thread that you're interested in,the best thing to do is to reply on that thread and strike up a conversation and then if you find you have relatives in common,then you will meet the criteria for Personal Messaging.

It should be noted that posting on this thread will not count. You need to post on a board designated for queries.

Most folk reply on the topic and wait for a response, you need to keep in mind that folk can be in all parts of the world so you may need to be a little more patient to receive a reply.
