My apologies (not sleeve related)- just need ancestory research help from fellow members

[former_vbg 198]

I apologize first- this probably shouldn't be posted here, but I'm just hoping maybe someone might be able to help send me in the right direction on this and everyone on here is always so great about helping one another.

I need to figure out how 2 people I know are related. I know them in a professional setting, and so the information I have is somewhat limited. I'm willing to do the research, but I don't want to get caught up in spending lots of money on tons of different reports of website subscriptions only to come up dry. I'd even be willing to pay someone who has access to this information if they could help me. Feel free to PM me if you want or just reply back to this thread.

Did they ask you to research their backgrounds?

genealogy library's have lots of free useful information. Also some mormon church's have genealogy information library's. Courthouse. google genealogy free. Lots of free information out there. You just have to take the time to look for it.Sorry if I sound blunt.

[former_vbg 198]

Thanks. I'll see what I can find from some of the libraries around here. I don't think either of them were born where they live now. It's kind of a dicey situation and I don't care to publish the details in a public forum. I just want to see if I can trace how they are related.

You shouldn't be researching people's background and familial ties behind their backs. Why would you do that?

I didn't ask for your opinion on whether I should or shouldn't be doing this. You don't know the details of this situation. I simply asked for people's advice on doing research. There is nothing inappropriate about what I'm doing. If you don't like it, then don't read the thread.

your welcome genealogy and Mormon libraries have a world of info. So does courthouses, Courthouses have marriage records that have a world of info on them.. Mormon church libraries have alot more info alot of times. I use to do genealogy.At some courthouses they have death and military records.

If you can't ASK these people for the information you seek, then you're doing something that you're hiding from them.

And, btw, when you post in a public forum, you get what you get. Especially when it has nothing to do with the sole purpose of said forum.

I can ask whatever I like. As for whatever I choose to research, I can research anyone I like- even YOU if I wanted to. If it's available publicly, its FAIR GAME! So, get off your high horse. You know nothing of the situation. I am now blocking you as I have no use for someone who likes to make statements that are so ignorant.

btw- I see you are new to the boards. Having an attitude like yours won't make you very many friends around here. See ya! BLOCKING YA!!
