I would love to
be able to help everyone who's looking for family information, but the fact of the matter
is that I can't. Please, before you send me an E-mail, think carefully about the
likelihood that I'll be able to help you or that your connection will be useful to me.
If you've spotted an exact name match, or a significant
confluence of information that suggests a real connection, please contact me. But if
you've just spotted a single instance of a similar surname, and have a surname in some
other place that might be similar, don't bother -- I just don't have the time to answer.
Sorry.
