Just an update, after searching one world tree on ancestry, sent some contact e-mails, they have come to nothing but searching it today got a great result. Everything in the tree was spot on as far as births names places of birth and marriage, so took the chance and merged trees, and what a lot of ancerstors I found. Think the relies in the states have better research details than us even got me back to a rellie in manchester, so small world. Just goes to show never give up. Sue

Hi Val, Thought that too, but when you start searching you can't stop, looks like a very large bottle of wine coming out and a long long wait. Sue
