Interesting story about Ancestry & the National Records of Scotland. 👇 www.whodoyouthinkyouaremagazine.com/news/ancestr...

A good example of why we should always view all available copies of a record. Here we have two versions of the same marriage record; on the left is the Bishops' Transcript, on the right the original from the parish register of All Saints, Wigan. Check out the witnesses...

#OnThisDay 1921 the Stapleton Road accident, which saw 6 GWR track workers killed & 1 injured. #Bristol #Railway200 This blog post starts a series looking at the incident, what was done afterwards & how we helped mark the centenary in 2021:

Just came from another fabulous live program for #AATP25. This time, my guest was none other than the Allen County Public Library's Allison DePrey Singlton. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy See the incredible resources she dropped on us linked in the notes: open.substack.com/pub/projectk...

S01EP09 – BRICKDUST with Pam Smith Join host Andrew and guest Pam Smith from Season One for this first Brickdust episode: Did Pam break through her brick wall and find the Etherington connection?

Great minds and all that! We've added four new #OnePlaceStudies videos tying in with the daily #AATP25 themes so far (one a day with a bonus one yesterday), all of which can be viewed via our Mini-AATP YouTube Playlist.

Oh, I’m incredibly touched. Thank you for your kind words. You’re a hero to me. I’ve been a fan of your podcast for a long time.

This podcast is really interesting. I knew that different areas in the UK had slightly different time zones & that it was standardised but it was interesting to hear what it was actually like for people

If you’ve been listening to our episodes these last few days, you’ll have heard @projectkin.bsky.social mention #AATP25 - please do go and check out the conversations on that hashtag here, and over on Facebook, YouTube, Substack too.

Essential reading for genealogists, whether you have Scottish ancestry or not… scottishgenes.blogspot.com/2025/09/ance...

Delighted to return to @familyhistpod.bsky.social! Andrew & I discuss the IHGS Licentiate, #GingerGoodwin & how I solved my brick wall on Sir Richard Etherington in #Rillington #OnePlaceStudy I was one of the first guests back in Series 1 & the first to take part in the Brick Dust series.

#AATP25 is very much *not* the event in its usual format, more a look back at some of the fab things from the two events held so far—with a theme for each day. 👇🏻 However, @projectkin.bsky.social and ourselves will be contributing new material: keep your eyes peeled for details! #OnePlaceWednesday

I am giving a short talk to @fibiswebmaster open meeting next month, "Tips on Visiting an Archive". What are your top tips? #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #FamilyTree #Genealogist #EastIndiaCompany #BritishIndia #Library #Archive

Finding some interesting things using FamilySearch full text search. Is this the same man indeed? My mother in law's 3x great uncle. Was a minister in Eyemouth... #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #FamilyTree #Genealogist #Scotland

Have you tried Full-Text Search? I tried last year, only found USA records. This week I found lots useful records, incl. my great great grandfather's apprentice records & more. Adding lots of un-indexed images, worth revisiting! www.familysearch.org/en/search/fu... www.youtube.com/live/hpWf-Vx...

Sometimes you just have to take a moment to admire the writing and illustrations... St Leonard's, Shoreditch #baptism #ParishRegister #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #FamilyTree #Genealogist
