The Chiddicks Observer 3rd Edition
Due to unforeseen circumstances I have been away from here for a while and you miss so much in such a short pace of time, there’s so much to catch up on!
Here are a few #Genealogy gems from around the world that recently grabbed my attention……….
This story caught my eye came from Lynda Heines and was another timely warning about the dangers of copying another person’s tree without carrying out the necessary research yourself. I wrote about this subject myself recently so a topic that is close to my heart.
I am really looking forward to this new series of tales from the Circus from the wonderful Lori Olson White you can almost smell the sawdust when you read this. Anything that Lori produces is always so well researched and more importantly is such a delight to read.
Colin Mustful has written an excellent piece around the presumptions that can be made around the use of social media as a means of sharing your work. A very thought provoking piece and well worth a read.
As some us already know, not all family history stories are happy ones as Nicole Palsa discovered when she researched the story behind a photograph.
This really is a beautiful story from Shell Norman written from the heart and i’m sure like me, this will bring a tear to your eye as you read it.
A very timely reminder from Kirsi Dahl about the importance of tagging or recording who is in those family history photos that are sitting in your collection.
A delve into the past………each week I am going to take a look at some interesting slightly older posts that have captured my imagination and this week Deborah Carl tells us of the importance of understanding the words that we encounter when researching our family tree can sometimes seem harsh and brutal even, but they have to be taken in the context of the time that the records were created.
That’s it from around the world this week, look out for more great reads next time…….
Very nice wrap-up, Paul! With RootsTech on, plus our own Genealogy Society's conference day, a few clients' work to finish up, I haven't written anything for much too long, even though I research almost every day... Sigh. Must do better! Cheers.
Thank you Paul for helping me find the identities of the ancestors in my photo collection (by including my post in your post). And I found some things I had previously missed among your list!
