Here is a copy of a recent reply I received in response to the email message I sent to all the people who had submitted to the Surnames Research Register.

Hi

It seems ages ago now but I was attempting to start a family tree, firstly on my mothers side who's maiden name was Aston and originated from Broadwell, so I posted some details on a site and really did not expect to hear anything, in fact I had forgotten all about it. Imagine my surprise when I received an Email from Canada from a relative of my Grandfathers brother.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

Best regards

Gerald Willis
