M&SFHF Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Hello, i thought i would introduce myself as a new member and hope i have posted this is in the right place? I run a similar family history forum. Our forum is for the Manchester & Salford area of Lancashire, England. We offer free help tracing family history for people who had/have families from these areas. If we can help any of your members with similar research, please feel free to ask me on here or take a short trip to our forum via a link on my profile. By the same rule, i will post about your forum on our forum. Hopefully this will be of mutual benefits to all our members? M&SFHF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardB Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Just meant we should forge a few more links with other sites because people came to Sheffield from around and about, they also left for other places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M&SFHF Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 I am one for that. This is one of the reasons i have joined your forum and many others over that past few days. I am sure we can all benefit from shared info & members. That way people know where to look for the details and records that are not always on the big paid forums and websites.

M&SFHF Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 This is taken from our opening page and should give you some sort of idea of what we are all about. We also have a "Tracing living relatives" message board which can be accessed via this link. Click 4 "Tracing living relatives " message board We also have a working progress web site, that contains bit-un-bobs about our area and a some records. I think that more or less cover us THE MANCHESTER & SALFORD FAMILY HISTORY FORUM. THE AIM OF THIS FORUM IS TO ASSIST MEMBERS WITH THERE FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH AND TO TRY AND GUIDE PEOPLE EITHER WITH WHAT RECORDS ARE AVAILABLE OR TO WHERE THEY MAYBE LOCATED. IF WE CAN FIND ANY INFORMATION THAT WILL HELP WITH YOUR RESEARCH, WE WILL POST THIS ON ANY REQUEST THREADS YOU HAVE POSTED ON OR STARTED. WE HOPE THIS WILL BE A TWO WAY EXCHANGE OF HELP AND INFORMATION. BY THIS WE MEAN THAT IT WOULD BE GOOD IF MEMBERS COULD HELP OTHERS WITH THERE RESEARCH. THE BURNING QUESTIONS MOST PEOPLE NEW TO FAMILY HISTORY HAVE ARE, WHO MADE ME WHO I AM? WHERE DOES MY FAMILY ORIGINATE FROM? CAN I FIND NEW FAMILY MEMBERS? FINALLY, WE ARE A NON-PROFIT OR COMMERCIAL FORUM, ALL AND ANY HELP WE GIVE IS GIVEN FREELY. WE DO HOPE YOU WILL BECOME ACTIVE MEMBERS AND PARTICIPATE ON OUR FORUM.
