I'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time to contact me and help fill in gaps that I had. I've 'met' a number of distant relatives and my father learned of an uncle he hadn't known he had through a lost second cousin. Although he had died we were able to learn about him - although not why my grandmother or her siblings never mentioned him.

Even with the internet it's easy to go down wrong lines or veer in the wrong direction and the community spirit of helping - even when it's to say that there is no connection - is much appreciated. I'd also like to say an extra special thank you to those who have no connection but do some research anyway and send it to me.

I hope you all have a great 2009 and success in your research.

Best wishes

Emma
