Well, you've just ruined our chances of Janey becoming our new Head Cook you numpty!

Yes Janey, we have a job vacant.

lol!

Yes, ha ha, whatever. This thread was about white space, I guess ...

Convoluted?

The point was that it was *my search* that was convoluted -- so hellaciously so that it's virtually impossible to explain in two dimensions.

That's because it involved two independent coincidences (the Ernest Hill birth for Ernest Monck, and the Ada Monck marriage for someone I'd never heard of) that I discovered only through the magic of search engines, and investigated in tandem, and ultimately matched up.

Quantum physics, I think.

Anyone got some spare asprins please?

'ere Fans....keep the bottle....but leave some for me.



Janey, check in at the ranch and you will see (a couple of pages back) that Gins has come up with a proposition. You fit the postion of Head Cook perfectly.....(Sylvs has turned it down - she'd rather be a researcher.....hmm, I can see a squabble looming).

Janey - Quantum physics, eh? I suppose you're referring to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle which states that the more accurately you try to transcribe the individual letters, the less sense the whole text makes.

I thought I meant seven dimensions. ;) Or five, or nine ... Kind of like one of those infiinity loops, or maybe an MC Escher picture, everything starting nowhere and violating the laws of time and space along the way to somewhere it couldn't possibly end up .......

I wonder whether Clare, who started the thread, has bothered to read the replies, and found any of them useful.

Now, I actually understood that last sentence Janey.....I'll send a missive to her.

thanks for all your posts. I really didnt expect that many replies. I have put several posts on trying to find with no luck im afraid and I am working on 4 names that keep drawing blanks.
My mum is so desparate to find out about her family and I could cry because people never told the truth and seemed to change names for no apparent reason!!!!! her mother put her maiden name down as manning on my mums birth cert and kenny on my mums brothers!!!
My mothers father was listed as kenny on her birth cert. This does not make any sense because my mums mum lived with the kennys.
I have considered that my mum and her brother do not have the same mum but she assures me she remembers her pregnant
kind regards and happy hunting to all

Thanks for the link, Chris; I'd been about to ask for it. ;)

And we're close to cracking that case now, I do believe!


(But Clare, for future ref -- no "several posts". Closely related people and the info about them should always be kept in a single post.)

awwww Janey.
You just done a pro out of some money,again..

Shame on you.

And the breaking news is -- I think we *have* cracked it!
