Take one 2xg-grandparent is our weekly challenge to focus research, with its own separate board. Each week we focus on one particular ancestor, for instance week 1 was father's father's father's mother, and you post up all the "vital information" you have about them, then spend the week trying to fill in the blanks with help from the rest of us.

Please vote for which 2xg-grandmother we should focus on in week 9.

That's the point though maybe someone else can help fill in the gaps also what I've found is you don't know what you've really got until you write it down in some order which has helped me.

We have done more with less than that - put it up, many of us love a difficult one.
Name, approx date and place of birth - or that of a child, will give us an idea where to start.

After the toggp is announced on Friday (Sydney time) go to the Take one 2xgreat grandparent on the "Research" board (menu) (one up from Research Questions) and start a new thread, with just the TGGP's name. If you go to that page you will see what we have already done - then just put in the post what you know - in your case, if you know about the children, it might help us as starting place.

Sorry, bideston, didn't mean to be as clear as mud.

Kiterunner starts the new TOGGP, with a message at the top of the Take One Two-great grandparent Thread when the poll is finished. It's usually on Friday, but as I am in Sydney Australia, its Friday evening, which is probably Friday morning in England, where most people (on the forum I mean) are.
