I wrote to the local paper where my great gran had lived (Newport, Wales), and had a major breakthru, with 140 new names on my tree, old family stories, and links to Sussex and Kent too. Am still pinching myself.

annette...don`t give up hope...in nearly 5 years i have had about 6 hot matches..and viewed about 6 thousand..not bad 1 in a thousand....but ONE of those matches had a contact who had done very extensive research on my g grandmothers family,and put me in touch with several family members of her bros/sisters..so ,just for that alone,it was worth the time and effort...chin up,and good luck for 2008........allan
