I am though haven't been able to add many names recently. Kate

I am but its getting harder, much harder! Jacqui

I am, although I am lacking time, money and enthusiasm at the moment so it is a bit of a slow process. Liz

Yes, although I had an enforced break when mum was ill over Xmas. I am trying to roughly 'do' f-i-l's side at the moment - for my kids - then I have a ton of info still to input for my own tree, from RO visits last year. I can't get to RO very often, but when I do I have a full day there and get as much stuff as I can written down - takes ages to input it all and follow it through though. I am at the stage now of revisiting each branch in light of the different resources now available - it seems to be working and those brick walls are getting chipped away! Maz. XX

Yes, I am researching, although hit a couple of very thick brick walls at the moment. I am also writing my own life story for the use of the Grandschildren later on. I come on here for 'light'?? relief in between doing FH. Ann Glos

I joined GR to try and find a half-brother ( its a long story ) thought my family was very small, but through g.r. have found loads of direct rellies. Hit a brick wall like so many but kept trying and I'm now in touch with a cousin in Canada who was born in India. lol. It gets very complicated but I shall keep at it. My o.h. bought me a FTM for Crimbo so being computer illiterate I am trawling my way through it. Lin x

I go mad for a while and then have abreak. AT the moment I need to put into some sort of order all the info I have from the last 20 years! I now spend more time chatting to 2nd cousins found than looking for more info. Jacky :-)

Obsessively Gwynne

I am, but got a bit stuck, so i take time out for a few months, then have another go xx

Totally obsessed with diggin up me rellies LUV IT Claire xxx

I am and have been since 1999 online-found so much, cousins across the Pond, and here in Canada, hoards of info, plus I am working on six Surnames-and with all this genealogy, I am totally disorganized! lol! Regards Carol

Ireland`s a nightmare, Sandy but there are several good sitesto look at, Ros

I am, but slowly!! it's all a lot to take in, i have got to bring my tree up to date but it's all scribbled at the mo in a big book i make notes in!! i am also researching my OH family tree but i figure our ancestors arn't going anywhere!! so i can just take me time lol Helenxx

I feel that I'm actually just tidying up loose ends, making sure sources are properly recorded on FTM, inputting the details on the website I'm designing. It feels like a long time since I've found a proper ancestor (rather than their descendants) Cannot believe I'm saying this, I miss going to the record office and searching for hours through the microfilm and microfiche searching for an ancestor's census records. lol

WFC 1066 you jammy dodger you!!!xx(and that was putting it mildly............)lol!!!

i have over 500 in my tree now *does a dance*....lolxxx(i have a very special tree man..!!)xxxx

Sally,I think thats the best thing sometimes, it can give you a huge headache at times,I agree.

i am...i look every day on ancestry on IGI, or hot matches..infact i had a little break through just the other day and managed to increase my tree to 1066 ancestors

I tell you one thing Roxanne, it sure makes you hungry.....I am sitting here with the leftovers from Sunday dinner, reheated....

I am very serious about it, I have to say that most of my information is on my own web site,not on here. I have my moments of being lazy about it,but once I get back into it I do rather well:-))
