I am impressed...you have done alot of geneology research. I am at the starting point.

As this is a thread about British Ancestry, I feel I should post the following link regarding Hereditary Hemochromatosis:

http://www.americanhs.org/

Anyone of Northern European heritage should take a look at the site and discuss with you family doctor. HH can be found thru simple (fairly inexpensive) blood screens. It can also be found thru genetic testing. As it heavily affects my family (Irish) I thought I would share the info.

Thank you. I’d never heard of this. Actually, I might be interested in having my daughter tested for this. She has had a strange combination of symptoms for about 5 years (she’s now 22) that we’ve been unable to pin down. Some of them are on this list.
