On one of my many Hot Matches I recognised a family that I had been researching. I emailed and gave the individuals parents and also husbands name and asked if we had a connection. The reply I received is as follows: 'Yes. Same family' Strange answer seeing that we are researching the same line. Neeedles to say, I gave up at that point and have not replied.

Aren't these automated replies - makes you wonder if they are really serious researchers. I had the same reply so sent another one asking ok how are we related - received nothing back. Oh well------------------ Mary in Spain
