I agree Ann,I keep a page for each person noting their parents and children etc. and their occupations and where I found the information. I use loads of paper and ink.I print off maps of the areas I'm not familiar with. Each person has a story to tell! June, Preston.Lan.

Suzy Report 4 Jul 2003 22:37

There is, apparently, someone on Genes who has over 17,000 names in their tree. I invited them to make themselves known a couple of months ago, but I think they must be shy.
