Hi Gene You must have missed this, I posted the same about a month ago when an attachment was sent to Roots and got through to the list I thought it may have been resolved? <https://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/hyperkitty/list/[email protected]/thread/QQ7Y326BMZIBOBRKRM6ILHR5QSZDVNX4/#CWE7SVGZL2HRGWHTJE2EWZJKDS3LZCKX> Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 07-Apr-18 3:53 AM, Gene Phillips wrote: > I knew about the gateway being closed.
