I was adopted and recently found my grand father, which was an emotional day. He gave me details of six other relatives who I never knew I had. People don't always want to be found, so please tred carefully out there

I'm decended from a well documented Cheshire family Me too! We are mentioned in Omerod's Visitation and my direct paternal line can be traced back to 1000s. Father's side were 'upstairs' mother's side were 'downstairs'.  I am a complete anorak as far as the family tree is concerned and have found many distant cousins around the globe to share research with. I love the Ancestry site. As another poster said, you really should give the 2 week free trial a go; highly addictive.

Hi maybe if we posted some of the surnames we are all interested in, we might be able to help each other!! Here's a few of ours I am looking at at the moment,HIGGINSON< SHERLOCK< TARBUCK< DODD<JONES<HILL<EVANS<BARNES<WRIGHT<MIDGLEY phew!! that's enough for this week (lol). What are you looking into at the moment? Jess My husband has Sherlocks in his tree and his 2 x gt. grandmother, Elizabeth Sherlock, is mentioned in Bill Houldin's book Up Our Lobby as the midwife Granny Sherlock, we believe.

Hi Jess53, no I don't have a tree on Ancestry and I only have a very basic one on Genes Reunited. Please pm me if you'd like to chat about Sherlocks.
