I have not used any of the forums much myself, it seems to be good,
but wondered what others experience of the quality of advice etc had
been. Its a bit robust around here <g>
RootsChat is an excellent place for beginners (and the more
experienced) to ask all the sorts of questions which usually elicit a
discourteous response here. The quality of advice is as good as
anywhere, better than many forums, with members such as Guy Etchells
appearing quite regularly, and stanmapstone. 'Stupid' questions are
treated with politeness, and good guidance is given.
Thank you all.
That was the sort of reaasurance I wanted.
I will be keeping an eye on her progress, and she has good books etc now, but she needs somewhere to catch up with the basics, learn how others have got on, and get an understanding of what is possible and not.
It seemed like the right place, but I am wary as some of the other interest forums I have come across can be way off the mark.
