CONNECTIONS - always in progress

At long last I am putting together  a list of researchers who link directly with my tree or have an ancestor recorded somewhere on my web site. I will try to keep contacts up to date but folk seem to move around a lot. If you find a broken link then just email me using the link on my contents page.

To avoid spammers  I add an "X" into the address of each researcher - so make sure you edit this out before attempting to make contact. 

One last thing. I only add information to this section with the permission of the researcher and only if I feel they have useful information to share. That information can be as limited or as full as they wish; from a simple list of names to a complete descendants chart. If you want to join this list then just send me a snippet of the information you've got and I'll get back to you.  

Happy  Hunting,

 Tom
