Tips on how to get answers to queries on message boardshttps://www.facebook.com/notes/yorkshire-genealogy/tip-how-to-get-responses-to-queries-on-message-boards/10150381393839432

The success of your query rests largely on your ability to create a subject line that will grab readers. Readers will be more likely to take the time to study your message and consider whether they have an interest or an answer for you. So stop crying for HELP in the wilderness and SEARCHING and LOOKING aimlessly, and start providing specifics in your subject lines. 

And remember to DELETE ALL BUT THE MOST ESSENTIAL INFORMATION from any messages to which you are replying: repetition of messages in replies takes up people's bandwidth and is unnecessary.
