Watching Lesley Manville’s Who Do You Think You Are, and spotting many echoes of my husband’s ancestry, including long term non married couples (in his case his Cornish great great grandparents married late in life, after a first spouse died) and ancestors transported to #Australia (a g..uncle in his #Suffolk ancestry). #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #WDYTYA #LesleyManville #Cornwall #Transportation

Anyone on here been involved in the making, or research, of a Who Do You Think You Are?

Catching up on Chris Ramsey's #WDYTYA - turns out that Russian degree is useful after all...

Watching Chris Ramsey’s Who Do You Think You Are episode, and remembering my own great granddad’s experiences at #Gallipoli. Here’s something I wrote about it. https://vivsancestry.wordpress.com/2014/08/05/remembering-great-granddads-ww1-service-100-years-after-he-enlisted/ #WDYTYA #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #WW1

Available to buy from Pen & Sword in the UK at https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Tracing-Your-Irish-Family-History-on-the-Internet-Paperback/p/16483 and in the USA from https://www.penandswordbooks.com/9781526757814/tracing-your-irish-family-history-on-the-internet/ #wdytya #Ireland

Anyone else pause Who Do You Think You Are to read the documents? #History #genealogy #FamilyTree #WDYTYA

Catching up with this week’s Who Do You Think You Are and there’s a powerful section about an ancestor heavily involved in the slave trade in the Dutch West Indies. Also a nuanced discussion about the multitude of emotions this leads to, and the importance of acknowledging it. I’m also struck it’s the same number of generations back in time that I have a slave owning ancestor, a #Melrose man in #Jamaica, my 6xg-uncle. #BlackHistory #Slavery #DutchHistory #WDYTYA

The second episode of the new series of WYTYA will be broadcast on Thursday 8 June at 9pm on BBC One.
