Go to Search at the top and select "Search All Member Trees".

If you type in your mother's name, someone called Neil Kendall has her in his tree. Click on his name to make contact.

There are Neil Kendalls living in Edinburgh on 192.com.

Might be useful to get the birth certificates to find out any middle initials.

Depending on their dates of birth, there could be some other members with your family in their trees.
Might be worth trying to contact them also.

Born 1945 in Edinburgh

also in the trees of two female members (apart from you)

So why not try contacting one of the three

You are reading someone's researching box....it is not aimed at you personally....it comes up with every post she makes

Same as what I have in my box.... Which is..... Nothing much

Ann - although this has been mentioned before.....have you used the Search all member trees facility on this site? (top right of this page under the Search option)

All of your uncles and aunt as well as your mother are listed in other peoples trees including ones owned by Arthur and Peter. Click on the 'find out more' button next to the search results to send them a message. If they have the same email address as when they registered, they will be notified that you are trying to contact them.
..........

Rose's comment "I am not related to you and I'm not your husband's first wife! " is in her researching box - as a helper, she and others are often assumed to be related to the people they are trying to assist.
Jax' Researching box says "Nothing much"
Mine says "I am NOT an employee of GR, just a paying member. Any advice, guidance or suggestion offered is given in good faith. "
:-D :-D

Please just try contacting the people who have this woman in their trees on here.

Ignore the boxes entitled researching. Just read the advice you have been given, and act upon it
