A contact through GR enabled me to find my first cousin who emigrated to Australia 30 years ago and lost touch. Another contact asked me about a name in my tree - she is now in touch with the son of her half-brother who she had never met. Other hot matches/searches have resulted in numerous 5th, 6th and 7th cousins - the most recent being a second cousin who nobody from the family had come across before. Its well worth entering the names of spouses and the small offshoots and twigs - gives you something to do when you meet brickwalls as well as resulting in success as listed above!! Caroline |
