ive found somebody in my tree and think i have a phone No for them 1) what do i say to them

Or (LOL) My name is Keith,I think we're related and I'm very very rich!........that will keep them interested long enough for you to explain! No seriously just say who you are, and where you think the connection is....if they're nice they will want to know you and if not............you might be relieved..... Rosexx

do i call them

Hello my name is Keith and I think we are related! (the connection is.......) are you interested in knowing more about this branch of the family........ Rosexx

I think I would write to them first and see if they would be receptive to knowing more..

That's what i thought! They should be pleased I'd say! Rosiex

' No sorry sir , I am the butler , would you like me to fetch the honourable Lady for you? She is at this moment conversing with friends on the internet , whilst wiping her nose on some £50 notes '

looks like they are a 4th cousin

I've not got the hang of this '4th cousin twice removed bit' but have been emailing a 'new' cousin for the last few weeks, we have the same gt gt gt grandparents, it is surprising how alike we are in our interests.............you might find the same ,once you have got past the first awkward bit........my cousin was really thrilled to find someone who knew a bit about the family. Good luck! Just do it! Rosexx

LOST FOR WORD AGAIN LOL

Well Hof, hun, I had the same a few months ago, so I wrote to them first saying that I was sure we were related and i enclosed that part of the tree. Sould they agree I would love them to contact me. They did and we met for the first time three weeks ago. Go for it Hoff, you will regret it if you don`t. Kathlyn

Have just entered all of Hoff's new info into his tree and the person he is thinking of calling is his 2nd cousin once removed..

You doing his blooming tree again, Raven.....He told me it was Woody....! He can't even get a 2nd and 4th cousin right ...* tuts* *waits to see what happens next*

Keith , Go for it , if you don,t you will always wonder , 'what if ?' Good Luck ... Kim xx

It's a joint effort, Polly!!! I find them; Raven enters them and Keith is lost for words! Right - assuming they have a '9-5' job they won't even be home yet so let's leave it till later tonight or tomorrow before phoning - either that or a letter first?
