Yes I agree FB is good for finding people.
With our unique surname my cousins stand out or
those with different surnames now find me.

Google searches also find my web site and many
people interested in surnames linked to Lankshear
have contacted me

Meanwhile back on FB I do not understand the
Farmville etc but Movies quizzes are fun - I am at
master level on 1980s culture - although I
probably know more about 1880
