I must admit that I had some good ones this time, most of them were 'Christmas' matches, I reckon everyone who has a Hampshire link must have a Christmas in their tree, but there were a couple of gems amongst those that have made me a few new contacts. Sue

Hi I agree with your frustration of GRRRRR. Most of my ancestors fall into the top 5 most commn surnames so I get literally hundreds of unrelated Hot Matches. Maybe its time the Hot matches board was changed to highlight the person being sought, birth date and birth origin, rather the the contact name. Then we could look quickly at the list and discard quickly the irrelavent contacts. Who do we contact at Genes Reunitd to suggest CHANGE! frustrated Eric

Can I join you in your Grrrrrrr? Just as you are all hopeful that you are going to find a long lost rellie and what? Loads of unconnected names, wrong dates wrong towns. You are not alone in the frustration!!! Chris.
