My pet peeve is that I have gone through a lot of trouble and expense to compile quite a bit of family history but no one in my family seems to be very interested. Another irritation is the inconsistancy of the census info i.e ages, place of birth and spelling or names but I guess I'll get over it. Hey Elaine, Which royal house are you connected with? Rose
