Kim we have tried sending you an email to the email that we received from you - however considering you are using one of the worst web email clients that there is (hotmail) we are unsure if the message got through.

This is for you.

Hello Kim

We have no record of your earlier emails. The previous spam filter we used blocked all hotmail accounts as a rule.

Is there something in particular that causes offence? We are happy to change details if they are wrong, or if some living person is being shown when they shouldn’t. Only the deceased should be showing.

A number of Burn descendants have provided this information - all of which is in the public domain - I myself am a Burn descendant.

Regards

5am Phone Calls

Viva la France
Phones ringing at 5am are either bearers of bad news or a seriously wrongly dialled number. When my cell phone rang it’s tune - Anarchy in UK by the Sex Pistols as it so happens - at 5am on Sunday morning, I awoke from restful slumber with a start. Looking at the number on the phone, leading with 0033 - I guessed that they may have the wrong number, so opened and closed my flip.

This effectively ends the call - I think I even turned the phone off!

And so back to sleep I went.

When I did eventually wake and decide what or who tried ringing me in the morning - I looked up which country 0033 belonged to. Arrh - France it is. Then I got thinking - I had via this website had some persons register from France and who had also been looking at the site. I had sent an email to one of those persons and it had included my cell phone number.

So I rang the number back and managed to start speaking in my New Zild accent with Corinne. It was very exciting - as we are 5th cousins and I know that Corinne was from a missing branch that had headed off to Burma. Thankfully, Corinne’s English is significantly better than my French - so we were able to have a conversation of sorts.

So due to the establishment of a French connection we have enabled a French language option to choose from for the Genealogy section.
