I go back to Afrigeneas and try every trick in the book....
I have so much success with Afrigeneas because(especiaslly with an ODD name) somebody is going to know somebody that has that name.

Every month I research the SURNAME DATA BASE to make sure I have included each and every name that I am researching in there and to make sure that someone didn't just add a name that I want to explore.

I post a messasge in a different way and hopefully the new way will catch the eye of someone

For example, on the first try I'll say....

Looking for CHINN/CLARK in Rappahannock VA

next try

Looking for CHINN in VA

next

Looking for CHUN/CHINN/CLARK etc.

* I always do a routine search of the main Forums about once a month.

Who know, you may have missed something while you were out of town.

* I always read the post if it is about ANY name in VA/Maryland and PA ~ who knows I may get lucky and find the name of some cousin.

BY THE WAY ~ tomorrow I'm having dinner with two of my cousins, that live right here in California, that I found on Afrigeneas!

I am so blessed to have them in my life!

So never give up, when you least expect it something will pop up.

Blessings,
Gail
