Ooooh Ruth, that's a good one! I do agree though that the way surnames are listed need revising-but as already said, the site is in it's infancy and can't be expected to run before it can walk. Well done ALL at GC! Colette Rogers

You could maybe bypass this problem by temporarily creating a fake relative with the surname who want to access. Or is that too naughty?

I have just posted a note asking for basically the same thing - a phonetic search on the names that we enter in the "search" box. I think it would be a great help to us all.

Dear GC, While you are considering extra message boards, can I repeat my plea for a full alphabetical list of all the Surnames on the site? It would help us to identify mis-spellings of our Names, and also perhaps give us a chance to enter "Trying to Finds" on Name Boards where we do not currently have a "name" but are actively seeking it.
