I've got him too, but only once. It's disheartening to hear that the site administrators remain so reticent about responding to/solving problems, but that won't stop me contacting them.

I have just removed all my contacts, I had far too many, some on twice. Please dont be offended anyone, you only have to click on my name to contact me.

I wanted to try to merge my message with the other one, but it didn't work, so I've copied the content of mine, with the replies, and shall delete the original, if you see what I mean, to make one less 'thread' about you know who. I have asked GR to delete "John Henry Thornthwaite" I have sent a message in feedback about this 'unwanted' name, and asked for it to be deleted. Joy Added By Joy Kentish Maid GC on 20/07/2004 18:52:09 | Update Message | Delete Message I have just looked again at my contacts. It is really silly, saying that I made contact with people using that man's name, and I didn't!! Joy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Sue at Langley Vale on 20/07/2004 16:06:15 He has appeared as the link in 3 of my contacts. My maternal G Grandfather, my paternal G Grandfather and my husband's paternal G Grandfather. I wonder if it's a coincidence that I haven't contacted anyone on GC about my husband's maternal G Grandfather? Just a thought! Sue Have also e-mailed GC/GR -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Marion from Merseyside on 20/07/2004 15:59:28 Going back to what Donna said about this JHT contact name... it will be interesting to see if he comes on and says anything, cos if this was happening with one of the names off my tree and I wasn't responsible I would be on here saying just that! Just a thought, Marion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Melinda In Cardiff on 20/07/2004 15:56:17 i,ve emailed them too lol, they will be fed up with all the emails. melinda -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Marion from Merseyside on 20/07/2004 15:54:09 I know it has happened before, but don't think we should blame GC until we know it is them ... and then we can have a good old moan about them! lol -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added By Joy Kentish Maid GC on 20/07/2004 15:41:51 | Update Message | Delete Message PS I thought by putting it on here, more notice might be taken by them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by June Nr Preston in Lancs on 20/07/2004 15:36:53 I think they have already had quite a few emails, just wish they would acknowledge they are looking into it -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Elaine Farrance ( in Happy Harlow ! ) on 20/07/2004 15:32:39 I emailed them earlier too.... Elaine x -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Marion from Merseyside on 20/07/2004 15:27:45 Donna, just put the same on original thread. Perhaps we should ALL send him a contact! LOL Joy, I emailed early on too, you think they could at least put some sort of acknowledgement on the Board, even just to say they are looking into it! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added by Strump (In Sussex) on 20/07/2004 15:25:09 I have emailed the family member, who i assume is the one attaching the name. I just asked for his attention in the matter so it wont happen anymore. Donna
