Greetings from a tired old Gunfighter.

Post by caniavapbob »

Thank you for accepting me on your website. Why have I joined ? Well what is there to do when the end is looming, but to search for your ancesters. Wouldn't do would it, to go through the pearly gates and not be able to name your great grandfather. Mind you, if it's the other way, I could be wasting my time. I have a few questions, although I am waiting for my brother to assemble what we can't seem to fathom. Forget the " begginers luck " saying, we are really stuck. Having read the rules though, I will post the query (s) elsewhere. Thanks for the opportunity.

Hi caniavapbob, Welcome to the forum, dont worry we all been there and just ask away either for help in showing you how to find your rellies or we can find the info for you which ever
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

They're not a bad bunch here! In fact they are fabulous, I cannot praise them highly enough. Not been doing it long myself, had a bash a few years ago, got disalusioned?-gave up. But this time with forum members help I'm doing quite well.

Welcome. :wink:

Cheers, Tony.

Well thank you all for the warm welcome, I am almost, but not quite, overcome with emotion. Stiff upper lip and all that y'know. Strange thing is Rob, there really was a Johnny Ringo. Part of the Clanton gang, they of OK Corral fame, (1881) he was known to spout off in Greek prose. He got into a dispute with the infamous Doc Holiday in Tombstone, in 1868, and a short time later was found dead, shot through the back of the head. The verdict was suicide. Well the posts just arrived, so lets see what my brother has come up with. That signature by the way, which may or may not discribe my character, is a film title. The Good, the Bad, and the..................... . well you can fill in the last bit yourselves.
