I also didn't pick up on "old"! Sorry, Names!

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

“ three old posts looking for the same name all from different people” i.e. Jill, Lauren and Carol.
Maybe you would have understood better if I had said old threads.

Obviously I am aware that Joy adds to three threads as it is my comments to Joy on all of them.. Joy makes it a fourth person looking for the same name.

They were the ORIGINAL posters. Only ONE person has added to their threads and brought them to the fore :-S :-S

How unusual, three old posts looking for the same name all from different people/
Jill is still a member so you can contact her by clicking on her name. Genes will then message her to let her know you are trying to contact her. That is, as long as her details are up to date.

You could try looking in search/search all members trees to see if anyone else has this family in their trees.

Oh and Welcome to Genes and the Boards.

My name maiden name was Batham and i like carol have been trying start my family tree but i know little about my fathers family and as he died 22yrs ago i need help my mothers memory is failing a little so she cant help . I believe my grandfather was called Thomas and he died at a young age 43, he was born in Staffordshire and moved to SHEFFIELD with a brother and perhaps a sister he worked as a coal miner. My father was Thomas he was born in 1920 and would think his father would have been born at around 1898 1900 thats about as much as i know, i hope someone can help. JILL
