I posted the following on one thread as I was getting a bit fed up that night

"So poster has not looked very hard to find him"

Because two of us had found the person in under 10 mins on the Scottish 1911 census and the poster had claimed they checked it and was asking for help to find him in England.


Boy did I get a stream of rude messages fromthat member

But on the whole most people do appreciate the help

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England. Researching Caven, McKill, Sutherland and Will in Scotland.

Don't lose heart Rose - there are those amongst us (the greater majority) who are always grateful for any assistance and always say please and thank you.

You really desperately want to reply " look for yourself " lol

when your hand hovers over 'delete' even as you're typing....

when the short impolite message you receive for giving your help results in you slamming doors really hard.....
