I finally plucked up the courage to contact a living person with a surname I am very interested in and after giving access to my tribal pages site the reply was to say the least slightly upsetting and dissapointing. It seems that the person believes I am a business and that I have highly "questionable motives" due to the number of surnames on the site, and the fact that I have not updated since 2006.
I have just sent an email back to try and reassure that this is not the case and that I am genuinely very interested in that name and that this past 12 months have prevented me from sitting at the computer for any length of time hopefully I have done enough.
Just needed to share my disappointment that all my hard work putting the site together across my whole tree, and my fathers work from 40 years ago is so easily dismissed and in quite a hurtful manner.
