G'Day.

Post by MarkCDodd »

Just thought I would pop in and see how you all are.

I am doing a lot of genealogy at the moment but nearly all of it in an endeavour to find he birth parents of my father in law.

He was adopted but the family did not know till I started the family tree in 2009.

He knew but took the identity of his parents with him.

Via DNA I have identified one of his parental lines, Meddings from Wolverhampton, who emigrated to Australia en-mass in 1852.

The tree I am using to trace all the Meddings descendants has over 500 people in it already!

DNA is brilliant for confirming your research.

Great to see the forum is still chugging along!

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

These Meddings are a bastard to trace. Marriages that never occurred. Bigamy. Illegal abortionists.

Nice to see you back Mark. :) I have been thinking of you.
I think it would be good to change or add some * to a post you did though.
