Find Living Relatives

Thank you to Anne & Zoe for all your help, it looks like we have found my cousins & their mother, we will contact them to see if Paul is still alive, it's nice to know that some people like to help

Also thanks to Lorraine for your post

I have to agree with you that 2 seperate people paying their dues can search for the same person and post the exact same info for a look up why shouldnt they Flick?

How do you know these people are even in contact with each other?

No-one suggested that the T&C's were involved.............it just seemed rather pointless to have two people asking exactly the same question, although giving differing amounts of info to facilitate the search.

there is nothing in the T & Cs that says two individual members ( who both pay to use the site) cannot post a query regarding the same person , however closely the individuals are connected.

It is no more a duplicate posting than if my cousin and I post a query having had a conversation earlier about ( eg) our grandparents which we may well have done.

it might be ultimately counter productive to have two posts on the same person ...but it isn't against t & cs,

here it is...it has not been reported at all by anyone

Your post is still there Roy just scroll down the page or go to my threads on the left hand side

But is is strange you both asked the the thing 13 minutes apart

I have been trying for some time to find my brother, with whom I lost touch in the mid eighties.

I thought a post on this message board might be fruitful.

Unbeknown to me, and without any collusion whatsoever, my daughter , Victoria had the same idea at the same time, and submitted a similar post.

Because another member 'thought' that we had collectively breached the rules, (though I cannot see anything in the guidelines which could be interpreted so), it would seem that my post has been taken down.

Now I am concerned that if I post again or complain I will be vilified for being vindictive.

This is totally unfair, and undermines the purpose of this site.

Any response will now go to Victoria's inbox which will then have to be forwarded to me, resulting in further delays.

I advised Victoria that either she or her father should delete their thread, as they were duplicating each other's request.....

I also said that posting details of her siblings was unnecessary.......

I can't think it was referred for content..........someone is being vindictive, I imagine

pmd a ? possible address for Paul's wife

pmd birth details of Andrew and Caroline

Why has flicks post been reported?

Your father has also posted a request for this man.............ONE posting is enough!

Please decide which of you will delete

And posting all your siblings' details is unncessary.......

I hope you've looked on here in 'search trees'
