Hello Sarah, I'm afraid you need to edit your last post to remove your email address as it's not allowed on these boards (it's not a secure site). To edit the post just click on "edit" that's on the same line as your name and the time you posted it. Delete the last line that has your email address.

If anyone wants to get in touch with you then all they need to do is to click on your name and then that opens up the Genes' private message system.

Up on the top of this page is the menu bar and on the right of that is "Search", click on that to get to the full Search menu where you can search all other members trees to see if anyone else has the same people and you can make contact if you find any matches. (I'm rubbish at explaining how these things work!)
