I am chasing the family details for my G.G Grandfather Hugh Morrow whom my mother said was related to Ann Morrow/Lindberg. He, or his parents came to Australia in the early 1800's from America and we know all his details since he married Julia Mems in 1861 at Tambarorra, New South Wales in the Hill End Goldfields.

Well first of all this isn't a message board it's a list server. Sometimes people only need to inquire about one thing and are not researching a particular family name and/or in a particular town so they don't subscribe to these lists because they only have one question and why get all these emails daily. You post to the list once and you're good to go till hopefully you get answers. The message boards are then 'gatewayed' to their respective lists if they have one. Not everyone who posts to the message boards also belongs to the list so in order for WE the subscribers to be able to answer them we must click on the link in order to respond to them via the board or they will never see your answer. It shouldn't be any problem getting to the boards via the link. It's all run by Rootsweb/Ancestry which is the same as the mailing lists. >From the message boards you cannot access someone's email as it is protected and you must answer it via the board (not privately) This keeps spam and the like from getting everyone's email address. So if you want to respond to a message board post you have to follow the link. Not everyone wants to subscribe to a list.
