Antonia .............


to find a member who is a descendant of George Sexton, you have to Search All Member Trees.

It is is extremely unlikely that anyone will see this post, as so few members actually use the Boards.

Go to the top right

Click on Search, then click on Search All Member Trees

If any member does have George, then it will shown.

You then contact the member via the internal messaging system, and wait

Some members will not reply ............... and there are several reasons for this. They might have died, become incapacitated, lost interest, or not notified GR that they have changed their home email address.

Others may reply in the future.

One tip ........ please don't use the automated "Open Your Tree" .............. many members refuse to respond to those message.

Do provide a short description of why you are contacting them and how you think you are connected.
