Writing, Scrapbooking, Podcasting My Family History
Did you know that one of the main reasons genealogists start researching their family tree is photographs! So, why don't we look after them more? Why isn't labeling our photos up there with DNA testing? How many of these examples have you experienced!

I’m really not sure why I have started my family history with my father’s narrative as I began my research with my Grandmother Ilson on my maternal side! Perhaps if I was to examine my reasons more closely it may be that I have always felt a little guilty that my relationship with my father was not a demonstrably close one!
