Thanks Lesley, however, even though I am logged on I can't reach those topics by clicking on them, Am I doing something wrong?

Do you have pop-ups blocked maybe? The links open in separate windows.

I can access them OK as an ordinary member, so they should work OK for you too, but do get back to us if not.

Hi Lesley, when I try to upload file under browse, that part works, BUT, it does not have a "continue" button at the bottom of the file, rather an "upload file" button, which when clicked on shows the file but still has no "continue" button, so I seem to not have loaded anything. Help. I never get the message uploads were successful.

Hi Izzie
OK, just gone through the steps as per instructions & all worked smoothly as described there.

You need to click "browse" to go and find the file, then after you have sucessfully completed that step, and you can see the path to the file name in that box, you need to scroll to the bottom of the page where you will see a continue button.

Have another go, following the instructions carefully & it should work. Ifnot, you know where to shout!!

Best wishes
Lesley

I will happily admit that it took me several attempts before I successfully completed the upload procedure my first time around, - there's at least one step that is not intuitive and/or obvious, but that's a function of the phpBB software involved [computer]

Guid pic Andrew.
But it wisnae whit ah wis Expectin'
Izzy,
I am very interested in all aspect of the Covenanters.
There are a few mentions in books of the Congregation in Lanark, Canada.
Guelph Uni. has one.
I don't have any.
I enjoyed yer reply regarding your Walter and the Waddells.
A wee insight tae whit life wiz like furr the the Scots in Canada at the time
How good tae huv them in your family papers.
I knew the Congregation in Lanark split in the 1830s, like a lot of the Covenanting churches in the Colonies at that time.
Again, if memory serves, there were only a dozen left from the original congregation in 1838.
