no i do not go on acestry, often people do not reply to messages, that's the nature of the world we live in, you have to just be happy when you find someone who makes the time for you, i have been reading and looking into Scotland regarding the Nelsons, you never know though with names, you have to have an opened mind, Scotland i think as a great truth to its story regarding how families evolved, in Britain as a whole the Gipsies have mixed with people who then either stayed strong as Gipsies or that line stopped being Gipsies, with the help of the d.n.a, a science that now cuts clean a long worn out wound, for you will offten read of this talk of the full type of thoroughbred, what this really means is people just staying strong in their family line and keeping it going, what it doesn't mean is this great unbroken line that is the pure one, if you can take the hits that come your way in honest research and still carry on you will evolve yourself and start to absorb the history of genealogy in the right mind set, you will cut through all the emotional wanting of feeling that just leads you to a falsehood that in its madness becomes real, in truth the real truth in genealogy is very simple people throughout history find the answer to what ever time scale they are in, there is not just one road that as a people you travel, people adapt and evolve, they mix with who ever they meat as long as in that time it was the right thing to do, they either strike out as a family in a continued way, or find a new direction, d.n.a there is no doubt as taken many scalps, if not all, the Gipsies must of been mixing long before they came to Britain, from my research i believe they have mixed greatly in Britain, there may have been generations where things stagnate for a while but life always finds an answer, when you come to accept the truth about the reality of genealogy and leave all the romance aside you then start to see all the unrevealed truth that as been noted down, there is lots of answers in the old books, manuscripts and census reports, first you must cleanse yourself of all knowledge of how things are supposed to be, everyone as to see themselves for who they are.
I have enjoyed reading your research down these months, and have learned much from your work, i do not really talk to people but only talk to words, people may write this or that, state that they are him or her, such things have no bearing on my mind i just talk and read the person through their words, it does not matter what name or gender someone says they are, i openly just talk to words, when you feel into them the truth comes to you, i will write back another time, take care and keep up the good work take it all in your stride, well done i have learned much from you.
