Yes ayashi im doing that when I can ..even if I see people havent been on the internet for a while

Got a reply from one with a closed tree and small matches but good triangulation
She replied "have you contacted my mother she does all the genealogy stuff"

I had to laugh and replied "your tree is closed I dont know who your mother is "

She didnt reply immediately so I then thought id take a stab at guessing who her mother was
Sent a message saying
"is ...your mother XX "

"Yes thats her" ... came back next day ...
....I was pleased because it could have been a totally different 2C1R

Ive even messaged some people totally based on shared matches locality  or ethnicity
and asked if they know how they connect to.X Y +z or Yorkshire to Texas or welsh origins.
