Tree Tops Genealogical is not available in any of the major bookstalls/news Agents in Britain or Europe to my Knowlege. When I have asked for it when you mentioned it before Sue, no-one could trace its suppliers. Sky television only has a limited audience in Britain as well, however, the internet service may be a different story but I have never heard anyon mention using it in Society of Genealogists. They are recognised as the official Genealogy Society in the UK. Library & genealogy enquiries e-mail libbrary@sog.org.uk They support the Genealogical Research Directory (details from Lois Burlo, 737 Calle Pensamlento, Thousand Oaks, CA 91360-4839) which can be found in any Public Library which every town in England has. It is published in May each year and usually has about 150,000 Surname Search Queries. http://ww.ozemail.com.au/~grdxxx The main magazine that is on sale in every News Agent and Bookstall Shop throughout the UK each month is the Family Tree Magazine also supported by SOG. There is a computer section as well as specialised articles about old occupations and tips on how to search in new sources. There is always a listed of names begining searched for and lots more. For Western USA States including Louisiana, Arkansa, Missouri, Iowa and Minnesota info on receiving it from Mrs F Rand, 1062 North Buhach Road, Merced, CA95340 For Eastern States Mrs J Harvey, 2420 New Port Drive, Lansing, MI 48906 - 3541 I wiould be interested to hear if anyone does get any help from the Tree Top as Sue has suggested. In England records are kept much better than in the USA because they are kept both centrally and locally. And it is much the same in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, it is often forgotten that we are separate Countries and that Eire (Southern Ireland is nothing to do with the UK since 1917). Unfortunately in the rebellion of 1917 many of the Public records were burnt so are not available centrally, and you have to rely on the Parist Priest thinking you have a right to see the the records locally. Still searching for David Greene from PA born around 1920. I wonder now if David was his second name. Did anyone have a Greene relative who was in the UK during WWII (1944)? Please let me know if they did. Elizabeth Angela Guyver Eaguyver@btinternet.com
