Thanks for ther Horace and Colin info. Think I must be going senile, it's be some time since I viewed that part of my tree so when I went to enter their wifes and children onto the tree they were already on it, cannot recall where the info came from.
As you say that you have found myself and my siblings (but there are not 9) on Genes Reunited I would presume that you would be one of my contacts but under a different name than your Ancestry one, as I though only personal contacts could view other trees.
Thanks again
Peter.
