    Sarcasm? why wouldn't they want to print it? your work is excellent, it's my complimenting skills that are not up to scratch.

    Cyclops is chasing my family tree back for me has we speak. Some of the things he has found out for me about my FT have blown me away. The guy is an absolute legend.
    He hasn't finished mine yet but he has given me a few snippits. Aparently I got an ancestor called Cornelius. What sort of name is that

    It's really interesting isn't it, I had no idea how much information there is out there to be found tbh, I would never have found the two books full that he found about mine on my own I know that.

    Your relative Cornelius wasn't worth £7.5m by any chance was he?

    Yeah I will let you know he will be asking you to pose for a pic with something in your gob next btw

    Do you want to see the photo of your greatx2 grandparents (born in the early 1850's) now or later? Research finished - just the writing to do. A few surprises along the way - a bumpy ride.

    I would not have done that if the road wasn't empty, there was only me and the copper on the road.

    This will not have enhanced your street cred with the law-abiding/but intolerant pro-road-rage drivers on here....

    I don't think so. The Cornelius in my family was born in 1668

    Hey Cyclops, how hard is it to research the ancestry of a Jones in Wales?

    You'd be surprised that it is not necessarily as difficult as you'd imagine.

    Best of luck with that one mate.
    I tried tracing my Mum's side of my family tree back and I was getting nowhere, and she got a very unusual surname.
    In the end Cyclops kindly agreed to trace mine back for me and some of the stuff he unearthed was staggering. Not just the names of my ancestors but lots of info about them too. He managed to go back as far as my grandfather x 8 in the 1600s.
