Jonathan has joined the list, but perhaps not in time for this message to have been sent, so I'm forwarding this message to the list. I sent copies of relevant earlier messages to him.

I've just subscribed to the list,thanks.I've just posted a little more on GENFORUM site. FYI,RUBLEY is only a minor sidebranch of my Family tree.However,I seemed to have uncovered a few oddities about the English RUBLEYs so that it is now one of my main areas of interest.I seem to be the only person investigating the English Rubleys.That's no so surprising as,for example,in the 1901 British census,they were less than 50 people recorded with this surname in the whole country.
