There would be more chance of people picking up on your post with some specific names/dates/areas & country?

Google searches bring people here with (usually) someone typing a specific name.

If you look at the bottom of the page, under "your tools" you will see "surname interests". You could check to see if there is anyone researching the same families as you.

You can contact them, but please be aware that there are a lot of people who join rootschat, add their names and then don't return, possibly changing their email addresses, so don't get your hopes up if you spot a potential match.

Annie's suggestion is the best, as it often happens that people find rootschat and others researching the same ancestors, via a google search.

Good luck.

Diane, I note that you have tried to make contact with others (on other threads) who may be related to your Jenkins.

I'm afraid that you will still need to be more specific about which "Williams family" is yours. As you can appreciate, Williams is one of the most common surnames in Wales, so if you can give details of names, dates and places of birth, marriages, children, census information etc it will help anyone work out if they have a connection with your Williams.

Are you looking for help in tracing any of your family lines, or are you just trying to find "cousins"?
