You may already be aware of this but there is a wonderful search
engine available for your use at
http://www.gencircles.com/ . It is
easy to use and what's more it does a cross referencing of your gedcom
files to see if other information is shared with or being researched
by someone else. Its free! After posting your gedcom information you
will be thrilled to see "smartmatches" of your family tree within 48
hours. It cross references to genforum and many other groups plus you
can search for your allusive road block in numerous ways. I am so
excited about this, that I just had to share with all the groups that
I have subscribed to, hoping that you will use it and get as much out
of it as I have. Leslie Thomas
