May Contest - Missed Questions

I hope you are all enjoying the May contest.

As I said at the outset, all the questions in the quiz are straightforward. There are no 'trick questions' and all the answers can be found in free to access links on the Looking 4 Kin links site.

If you missed question #1 and don't see anyone in the room to immediately give it to you please e mail me with Looking 4 Kin in the subject box and I will pass it on to you.

For future reference, please e mail me the same way for up to SEVEN questions (not including #1 which is a freebie)that you may have missed.

I am not giving my e mail here as it is likely to lead to a load of spam, but my genealogy website is listed in the Regular Chatter's Surnames & WebSites - and you will find e mail contact information there.

To ensure that all time zones have adequate time to complete the questions and all questions are online for a 24 hour period - at the end of the month question #28 will remain online until Just_M goes to the computer on the morning on Sunday 1 June.

You will then have a 24 hour period to e mail all your answers to me - they must appear in my inbox by 2pm GMT (or thereabouts) on Monday 2 June 2008. The responses will be checked within a few hours and the necessary information will be passed to Just_M

The May contest starts today

And the winner is ........... Bugg won the April contest and has recieved the Deluxe Version of Legacy

"The May contest starts today:

When is it? - Sunday 4 May to Saturday 31 May 2008
Where is it? - In Looking 4 Kin Chat
What is it? - A quiz

Here's how it works ...

Each day a new quiz question will be posted in chat. Keep a note of your answers. At the end of the month an e mail address will be posted for you to submit the answers and the winner will be the person with the most correct answers. If there is a tie then the names will be put in a hat to draw the winner.

The quiz is designed to help everyone learn about research in various parts of the world. Don't worry about the cost of resources - every question will be based on information that is available for FREE on the internet and can be accessed from the Looking 4 Kin website.

I realise that it is impossible for everyone to be in the room every day so, towards the end of the month, my e mail address will be made available to admin/helpers in the room and you can contact me for up to SEVEN questions.

In that way, as long as you are in the room on 75% of the days you will be able to get a full set of questions.

The first question will be posted on Sunday 4 May - GOOD LUCK !!!

Rosey"

The winner will receive a genealogy related prize.
