HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Mrs. Charles Frederick Worth Hybrid Rugosa. Description. Charles Frederick Worth, though an Englishman, was the leading Paris couturier of the late nineteenth century... He died in 1898, nine years after the rose was introduced. It is credited to a gentleman named Worth. This may be a coincidence or perhaps Charles Worth, like Caroline Testout a few years later, may have used the rose to promote his own business... double blooms in cool pink. Parentage unknown.
