    Anodda nice one, Xavier! 🙌🏽 And NUFF appreciation Anthea, for sharing those interesting stories from your experiences in Türkiye, also for mentioning RGD! Family & I got some good help from RGD with our family research -- their genealogists did the research we requested, and emailed our reports. I was overjoyed to hold in my hands, my maternal and paternal grandparents' actual marriage records -- from 1899 and 1908, respectively! -- along with other family research I requested. I really enjoy learning more about my family's heritage. So thanks again for mentioning about RGD and related genealogy research resources for JA! ~~ 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 (in Carolinas)
