Hi - I'm Lyn - been doing family history for donkey's years - online mainly - and have hit so many brick walls I can't think straight anymore. Need a kickstart!

Thank you Wendmac.
First brickwall : in Alsace - or is that too far away! Ancestor from Metz, have had message sent (in French) to the Mayor - but they say they can't find any info. Do you think that's the end of the line?

Hi Lyn, welcome

I think you'd best ask your question in the Non UK forum, there's a subsection for Europe ... else the right people won't find it

Have fun and good luck with those brickwalls

Hi LynS,
Can you give us a bit more information on the ancestor in question - Name, date of birth, death, family etc anything which may give us a lead.

That's right, try asking in the Europe section giving us names and dates and I am sure the members will do their best. The world is our oyster.
