Can't Remember User Name
Hello - I am located in England, and am helping another person who has onset dementia and cannot remember his user name.
He isn't able to easily access e mails and phone calls but would like to go onto FS by signing in himself - with a helper nearby.
His details are
Brian Douglas Mahoney date
User name NOT KNOWN
If there is any way this can be done through me my details are Val Atkinson
Thank you

Absent more direct assistance, and for the benefit of other readers:
Likely his login name is the same as his display name, so if you look at Family Tree pages of some of his recent ancestors you may be able to find his display name there. Or, if you have him watch over your shoulder as you browse, seeing the name may trigger his recall.
