I wonder why that is Tabby? Maybe there would be just too many messages containing the most common ones. eg.IGI Ann ps: I seem to spend a lot of time wondering *why*these days!! lol

And if you search on IGI or TNA or any of the common 3 letter family history abbreviations, you get nothing! GR won't let you search on less than four letters. (Do you ever get the feeling that this site was not designed by a family historian?)

Thanks Lunar. I was wondering if I should nudge Smilie Sammys *BIL letter* thread..in case it disappeared while she was on holiday. Ann :)

They appear to go in to an archive. If you put 1837 into the search box, you get 20 pages of results - some are 2 years old!

Are threads just eliminated after page 15 .....like they reach the edge of a cliff + fall off?
