Hi Carolyn What a truly generous offer of your time.   Please send any of the e-mails you can retrieve to my e-mail address - [email protected] with 'Memories' as the subject & I will see what I can do.   The memories that are being recorded here are an important part of our lives.   So many times in my life I have looked back & wished I had recorded a happening having thought 'I can do that later', but somehow we never get around to doing it.   As I have grown older &, in particular, since researching the family history, I realise how important it is to have these details recorded somewhere for future generations.   My immediate family always disappear or find 'things to do' when I try to tell them of a break-through I have had in my research, but one day they will thank me for recording our family history in such detail. (at least I hope so)   Thank you once again for your offer of help which is very much appreciated. Regards June Fleetwood (nee Rainbow) West Yorkshire.  From: Charles Sidebottom <[email protected]> To: 'J FLEETWOOD' <[email protected]>; [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, 14 February 2012, 23:09 Subject: RE: [LEI] All these memories Hi June, It sounds like many like the idea of collating all of the e-mails into some sort of memory document.  I hardly know what or where anyone is talking about since I grew up in America, so I am not the person for the collating job.  However, I have also deleted the e-mails but I still can get access to them.  Tell me how and where to send them and I will see what I can do to get them to you.
