Nana Sue

I don't know why or who rr'd your OP.



This quote was taken from your post of 11.32 today
"Not everybody is skilled at looking for records and even the know-it-all's need help at times".
So why haven't you answered the questions on your threads on marriage banns and baptism collections?

Well I presume the obvious person is me because I mentioned it was a duplicate.

BUT I did not do it.

More reason for the RR'ers to come clean or be named automatically.

If one changed "so many" and replaced with "some" so that the phrase read ..........

"some" posters do not post on all boards, "most" do


then that would be much closer to the true state of affairs.

I think every person who has posted on this thread has at some point over the last couple of years helped or posted on a thread other than General Chat.




edited once to clarify

As Kay???? has pointed out the reporter may be using several email accounts as free members. So publishing the names would not tell you anything and they can't post to tell you who it is.

I did not intend to post on here ..................... but did so now because I was sorry to see the RR.

The thread was obviously serving a purpose for some people, although it did seem superfluous to me.


I do not see who is the "obvious person" who RR'd the OP

I will state that it was not me!

I was fast asleep in bed when the RR apparently happened (seemingly around noon UK time).



It is taking GR a long time to respond, and replace the OP.
