@wragge @histodons I just used the “Save a Trove Newspaper Article as an Image” Tool, and OMG!! BRILLIANT!! Seriously, this is a great list of resources, Tim, thank you so much! Can’t wait to explore them all! #FamilyHistoryResearch just got easier!
Day 2 of using Ancestry to help with #FamilyHistory and part of me is “cool, photos!” And the other part is “Are you suuuure because ?Sources?? Who originally owned this damn photo, guys?”

When I get to heaven, I want to see their copy of the #1890Census. Then, I want to meet my #BrickWall Gr-Gr-Great Grandmother & ask her what her goshdarn name is.

Currently writing another blog post about finding another ancestor (non-direct) in a lunatic asylum in 1895. The treatment of mental health patients back then was atrocious.

It's been a relatively quiet week on the genealogy front so far. I've been tweaking my own family tree, and some minor updates to my website. I've had a Zoom meeting with the Society of Genealogists this morning, and ordered a family history book. I'm still waiting to hear about some documents about my maternal grandfather. So I'm itching to do some research and blogging, which I can't continue just yet.

I've been updating my website today, especially on the pages 'Societies and Organisations' and 'Useful and Interesting Websites'.

Finished a project for a client today. I wasn't able to find the next generation, but I was able to disprove something (that she already had doubts about) and find a few leads to help with her research.

BLOG POST: Sounding like a scene from a Thomas Hardy novel, my ancestor was imprisoned for one year hard labour for poaching and being armed – escaping transportation! What led him into this dangerous escapade? The story goes deeper than it looks. #genealogy #familytree #familyhistoryresearch #genealogyresearch https://ukgenealogylinks.com/2022/12/28/a-dorset-tale/

At some point in your genealogy research, you will find a family line that died out. Or a male YDNA line or female mtDNA line became extinct. Or instances of pedigree collapse. Should genealogists note instances like these in our family trees?
Join us this Sunday at 4pm EST as we talk about lineage extinction & pedigree collapse – and how we can note and memorialize them.
