Hi Paul, I will be more wary in the future of who I give my family tree info too. I had someone ask about a name in my tree, we seemed to confirm that it was the same person, they then asked for details and info of how I got to that persons family (are you with me??), well emailed them it all.. and not even had a thank you! This person is a so called expert on this certain person yet here I was emailing them where the info was found. Not sure why I bothered really! Debs x

I get them all the time. I also send a pm back saying if you could tell me what name and area you are searching i can then check my tree etc, i also get a pm back saying im rude etc, LOL. Nope the people who do this are rude, unless someone says a name and area etc and it looks like there is a connection, then im not showing anyone my tree, it wouldnt make sense at all LOL :-)

Got a request to view my tree this morning, from someone who's sent the same thing several times. I mailed back to say that (as I'd told her before) if she was interested in someone in my tree, to ask about that person and I'd then have a look - if it looked liket here was a link I'd happily open the tree up for her. Apparently that was rude ? It would appear that her research technique consists of PMing people at random to view their tree - she actually said 'since I can't see your tree how do I know who's in it' !!!!
