wish my great grandfather could tell me where he disappeared to during 1851 and 1861 census. And also if he is my grandfather or am I barking up the wrong tree. lol

Would be interesting to see if they picked up on anything. Never heard of virtual candles Val, sounds interesting. Ah well, will just have to go back to searching myself! Dawn

Hi Dawn I sit in a spiritualist circle and have been going to the spiritualist church for nearly 3 years now. I am desperate to find out info for my tree. I've had bit of help a few months ago from spirit. I suppose I shall find out things when they are ready to tell me.

I did not need a medium I went on to virtual candles and lit one asking for help with tree as I didn't know when my ggrandparents died and then after 1925 came in to my head so started to look and my friend was round and she asked what I was doing and I told her but I said I am getting fed up wish I knew what age they where and 81 yrs came in to my head so took age and worked out what year and yes I found them

Susan, do you have a Pink Directory, or a Thompson Local? Look in there for a Spiritulist church, and you can go see it before you get involved with a spiritulist.

Sounds like more than coincidence! I am a believer and have been considering a visit in the near future. Maybe it might be too confusing with all the new names I know! Knowing my rellies they probably prefer to see me work at solving their mysteries! Dawn

Could be a coincidence, but I saw a medium once, and she told me that I should be looking in Austria for my tree. At the time this did not make any sense to me. A couple of years later I found out that my g g grandmother was born there. She also told me the name Heidelberg, Not found that connection yet though! Pat

Whilst visiting the grave of my ggrandparents recently I was saying how I wish I could ask them questions about some of our elusive ancestors. This got me to thinking has anyone every thought about using a medium? Bit of a daft question I know, but when I've ever visited in the past, have always been asked if I have any questions.... Now let me see....LOL!!
