Hi all you bio builders. We've had a lot of response to great great grandparents. Some people have just started.

Is there any interest in continuing this theme into the Aug 15-Sep 15 Challenge? Or do we cut off on the 15th as usual

Or optionally I can start a new theme but leave great great grandfathers theme open, say an extra two weeks, or some other amount of time.

Yes we will start a new theme on the 15th. For those who started late, I'm extending the deadline to the end of the August.

I think it might be a good idea to leave the gg grandfathers' theme open for those who have just started.

I've 'finished' mine - and am raring to go for a new theme! I would be very disappointed if there wasn't one.

I finished all my great great grandparents and did as many as I could for my two children (still thinking of what else I may be able to add in the way of background images etc.) but I'm working on other profiles instead now, so I'd happily take on a new theme...but you can still leaving the last month's challenge going for those who start late.

So - is there going to be a new theme on 15th August? Or if the gg grandparents theme is going to continue - what do I do next?

Oh definitely a new theme. But I'll let the stragglers have until the end of the month. Haven't decided what the new theme will be. Anything you're wanting to work on?
Well, I greatly enjoyed the "names beginning with..." themes, so how about "names beginning with S" to include September - like Samuel, Susan, and so on.

The only other one I can think of is Second children - people tend to focus on the eldest child or the youngest child.

Both of these would allow people to range far and wide in their genealogy!
I like both of those ideas, thank you Ros, I have been contemplating the last few days, that helps.

I have/had lots of brickwalls in that generation and would like it to continue. Maybe for Aug/Sep the challenge could be extended to include their siblings!

Start a new theme on the 15th as usual, and run the great-great grands another 2 weeks. I'm ready to go on a new theme.
