Re: William Corlett/Wilfred Forsyth

Hi Richard. I am not sure why you are upset at Janet's message. I regularly correspond with J. and I would read this message as: 'bullied' meaning 'asked'(possibly with self confessed pushiness), and the family tree in inverts, because that is possibly not quite the right term for the sort of information provided. It sounds to me as if she much appreciated the help, and has in fact publicised the website and bulletin board, complimenting the IOMFHS site at the same time.

Unfortunately when one is writing a quick message on the net, it doesn't always quite read the way it is intended by the author, and my guess is that is what happened here. I am writing this in advance of Janet seeing it, as I suspect she may be embarrassed at her message being misunderstood.
