I’ve been researching my family history for several years and the aim of this blog is to share some of the things I’ve discovered. When I started researching, I wasn’t sure how interesting my ancestors might turn out to be, but one of the things I’ve learned is that every family has interesting people and events in its past, and most also have a few surprises.
