I have to agree with both Gordon and yourself in that this site is
amazing and I also send my deepest regards to those who contribute so
much material & especially to Len Swindley who is such a remarkable man
to spend so much time and effort giving others Genealogy pleasure -
offering chances to add to their Trees. 👍 I hope they find some
satisfaction in their work & understand how much we all appreciate them.
Cheers,
Lola 🌞 newbie to this Mailing List - always looking for Hadden from

Thanks for the accolades, Gordon; however, I must admit I am only your
humble webmaster!
Len Swindley is the Master Content Creator who must work almost day and
night to decipher the old documents and films which are normally
extremely difficult to read.
One thing every CTI user/supporter could do is to post links to CTI
pages on their social media.
The more users we have, the more chances we have of helping each other!
We wish you and all CTI supporters continued successes.

Hi Jim,
I must thank you guys - Len, Elwyn and others - for putting so much
info into COTY. I have found it useful in tracing names and confirming
stuff from other sources. Cross-checking being so important. I can now
verify my father's ancestors back to the beginning of the 19thC in Co.
Tyrone and my mother's back to the late 18thC in Co. Londonderry. Very
many thanks for your efforts. How do you find the time? My wife's line
however, goes back, via the Isle of Anglesey, Wales to William the
Conqueror and even earlier to before the 8thC. (I gave up at that
stage!)
It's so interesting to discover why family members moved, or didn't,
and what their lives were like then. Their jobs, living conditions,
religious and other affiliations. Fascinating. The Diaspora of our
families now spans the globe. Some were pioneers in the West and East
Hemispheres. The history of their times make for interesting reading
and fleshes out the family story. The picture it paints gives one a
clearer perspective of today's problems and what we find difficult,
hard or unjust. So chastening!
For information, I have almost 9000 names in the db and more yet to
enter, thanks to the support of others in the extended family. These I
have written up in an illustrated family history as a web site, not on
the internet but private (to protect the innocent ;), with cross-links
and supplementary data. This allows for easy updating and correction.
The printed book runs to around 1500 pages.
Keep it up!
Gordon
