Where are you (what area's could you research?)

Post by Lee Layland »

We have members all over the world.

Would you be willing to look someone up, take a photograph / transcribe a tombstone / search local records?

With our large membership spread throughout the world maybe we could help each other take our research further?

If you would be willing to help, please comment with the area's (locality) of where you would be able to do some looking on someone's behalf - we want this to be on a volunteer basis, a "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" type of thing.

Hopefully we can reduce some of the costs involved in this (ever increasingly expensive) hobby.

I heard that had been temporarily suspended due to the sad demise of one of the founders, hope it gets back to normal soon, as you say Tina it's a lovely site.

Thanks Mary

She had such vision.

Yes, I am skilled in removing ivy from old tombstones and can take a reasonable photo too!!
Can do North Somerset, (numerous little villages down here). Some outskirts of Bristol too.
If you are researching in the area of North Somerset, I can recommend several very good websites which cover this area.

I live in County Down, Northern Ireland. I don't know about record offices - I think the records are all online anyway - but I'm happy to take photographs in County Down or Belfast. Feel free to ask about the remainder of Northern Ireland - I'll try to find someone local for far-away requests.
