Hello Stan and POsh..

It so annoying when I first started all I had was my dads birthcert and he was born in India as my Grandad was in the srevices... I wrote to the MOD and they said no service number for him. All my research is mine..hard work and patience. I now wouldn't ask any familylegends I have found as just tall stories...lol

I started off really well with the info i already had. I havnt used the services on here, exept once, and i found cousins attached to my ggmother! I find it takes ssssooooo long, you have to dedicate a whole day really to get youre head around it! And quite frankly i've been so addicted to these boards, i havn't found the time!
The good thing is i got my MIL started again as she didn't really know how to use the site!

I try and do a bit every evening. I was seeing if I could find anything new about one branch last night but didn't really see much of any use.

A few days ago I thought I'd found an interesting connection to a family of French musicians. My daughter has access to university articles and I'd found something that might be relevant in one article then I e-mailed the author of the article.

I'm not sure there is a connection yet but it's given me a clue about where to look.

Today..... I found a couple of notes that I hadn't added.... I had a lot of techno stuff and Family tree thingy 2008 from Santa... and I realised that i have slides and negatives of a few of the rellies... but needed a) to learn properly how to use the scanner, and b) get my head around FTM...... Still not sure I have with the latter, but getting there... but I have *puffs chest up with pride* scanned over 800 slides, negatives and photo's, and added names/dates etc to all those I could... it has taken me two whole days!!

Our lovely CC helped, as she told me one way of doing it.... Big sloppy Mwahh CC!!

My tree is beginning to look very pretty, lol!

Love

Daff xxx

ps, haven't put 800 photos on my tree, lol....... but they are there ready if I want to....... only got 5 carrier bags, 20 odd albums and a couple of boxes full to go now!! lol
