To be honest its very rare anyone asks me if i am related, i think about 3 people since i joined. Although i am good friends with the very first lady that ever messaged me on this site, we share the same first and second names. i can't wait to have enough surnames in my tree so lots of people can contact me.I must have unusual surnames so far,But i am reading these threads carefully for tips on how to handle the bad mannered ones, if/when they arrive. MOE! |

I would have to go with the happy side of this site. I have never been refused help and only had a few messages unreplied. For those, I would say that it was that the person had not been checking or maybe they were no longer involved with the site. Bob |

Julie, Even worse is when they dn't seem to want to do any of the searching, and they just copy all the details you give them onto their tree. Pat |

Julie, This happens a LOT .... I've come to the conclusion that if indeed we were related, I certainly wouldn't be glad because they're clearly not on the same wavelength! Just take a deep breath - and carry on! There's plenty of 'nice' cousins out there, honest. Regs Jane |

When some-one asks you about a name in your tree you help them out as much as possible. Yet when you ask them a question you don't hear nothing back. |
