Margaret, Thrilled for you. A second cousin also contacted me through this site and managed to fill some gaps in my tree so I know exactly how you feel. Jean x.

Isn`t it wonderful when these things happen? I was talking to my mum today, and she told me that my aunt has dug out some paperwork for me to look at, including my Grandpas naval papers and the paperwork relating to the pub my grandma ran during the war! I can`t wait to go down there now!! Rebecca
