If you have an ancestor you wish to have a lookup for--feel free to post a query on the board--the URL for the board was in my previous post to this list today. Joan
On the DAR site there will be a word such as ancestor and it MAY even have a little red "new" next to it. If you hit that you should get a place where you can feed in the RW ancestor you are interested in and shortly will receive an answer as o whether he is listed or not.
