Hi i agree with Gill if things were explained on the home page for newbies, re messages and how to use/what's expected on community board, think things would be better,less misunderstandings.

I wrote to someone with a connection to my tree and he just opened his tree up so I didn't open mine for him if he cant be bothered to write.

Maz & Kitty, I bet I have the biggest brick wall ever with my Shenton Family, I have them on all census returns but can't find any BMD's or parish records befor 1863 and I'v searched the county for the last 10yrs, It's one step forward and 10 back but not in the right direction if you know what I mean. very frustrating!! so I know what you mean I never get any hot matches for that branch of the family.

I think things should be explained to people when they join. Maybe on the home page. How to send polite messages!!!

Beats me! if a message was sent too then would explain. But can't understand. Maybe a newbie or something.

I wonder if it's just a case of people forgetting to untick the box?

Hi Janet,
Funny enough I got a tree opened message from someone I had never heard of yesterday, I did take a look but couldn't find any connection, so don't know what's going on.
