@projectkin.bsky.social Each gen of signatures from my 2x great grandma, Anne Williams (signed as Mrs. Tom Davies), to my 12x grampie, David Evans of Pantcoy. The fact my 9x grandma could write her name in 1711 is so fascinating to me. Like where did she go to school??? #Genealogy

Rather chuffed to have my article published in The New Zealand Genealogist magazine December issue. The theme was "Where did they live?" #genealogy #familyhistory #archives #nz #genhour #oneplacestudies

This is our very special year end program of @yycphoto.bsky.social Kathy’s Corner… it’s going to be a hoot! And free. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #genhour

Join us! Holiday stories… remember that time when you caught Santa kissing mommy? #GenHour #FamilyHistory

As America, our 250th has had me thinking about better highlighting the extraordinary array of posts added to the Projectkin’s #Stories250 effort. Why not roll all posts and talk recordings into a new page: Projectkin.org/stories250 Stories: Around the world 👀 #GenHour #FamilyHistory #Genealogy

#AncestryHour #GenHour

Hello #GenHour I DNA tested autosomal way back in 2013 but put off any other type of testing until now. Just got an email (opened 2 minutes ago) from FTDNA to say my mtDNA results are in. So ... Don't think I will get much else done today! 🧬 #Genealogy #GeneticGenealogy

And the full recording of Karen de Bruyne's talk for All About That Place, is now posted to both YouTube and Substack. You'll find the Substack link at Projectkin.org/aatp25 The YouTube link is at youtu.be/X44dTdIaPFY Join us tomorrow: Projectkin.org/aatp25-events #AATP25 #GenHour

I’ve been writing & recording a talk ready for this year’s #MiniAATP - All About That Place is an online conference on place-based research, & while it’s paused this year, there will be a social media version, with @oneplacestudies.bsky.social releasing a video each day #GenHour

This week-end I need to do a bit of preparation for the next #GenClub recording #GenHour. Here is the last one ... open.substack.com/pub/genealog...

Hello #GenHour I am not sure where the past week disappeared to 🙃. I have been trying to tidy up some of the profiles in my family history archive on theweare.xyz platform (entailing further research a bit of rewriting) but have had lots of interruptions.

Good morning #GenHour. I would like to know why my 2nd great grandmother, Annie, left her husband and small child and what happened to her? open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

We’re really looking forward to our #OnePlaceStudies Conference and AGM in November! The conference theme this year is transport, and we have some great talks by brilliant speakers lined up. Free for Society members – why not join up🔗 and join in with this excellent event! #OnePlaceWednesday

Hello #GenHour. I haven't managed to get much family history research done this week but I did post this: open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

... and now I do. Fascinating story. I have tried to sum it up here: xanthh.substack.com/p/infiltrati... #OnePlaceWednesday #KarlKunger

This week, I have been thinking about some oral family history. #GenHour open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

Your #OnePlaceStudy looks interesting @cathyclarke77.bsky.social

Good Morning #GenHour. This week, I have been exploring a box of treasures with a view to researching and writing about some of its contents in the future open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

#GenHour By the way, Newspapers dot com has a sale on right now (saw the news at Genealogy Bargains & in the latest Lost Cousins newsletter). I have it as part of an All-Access sub.

Good morning from Friday #GenHour ... This week, I have been trying to tidy things up a bit in my #FamilyHistory and #OnePlaceStudy archives on weare.xyz #Genealogy

Thanks for posting this @oneplacestudies.bsky.social Yesterday I posted part #2. There is now a link to it at the end of part #1 #oneplacewednesday

Good Morning #GenHour This week I published the first of a 3-part series about the 1891 tragedy on Mt Nobbler on my #OnePlaceStudy Substack Publication. Otherwise, I have generally been trying to tidy up my #FamilyHistory Archive - kyeburndiggingsops.substack.com/p/tragedy-on...

Society for #OnePlaceStudies members - don’t forget our editor Colin’s request for articles for Destinations. The deadline is strictly the last day of August but it is helpful for him to know, in advance, if he is to expect something from you. #OnePlaceWednesday

People say that writing and the stories can be cousin bait. How true #GenHour! This week, I was contacted by a descendent of Richard Lang, who I have just finished writing a 9-part series about on Substack. He says he has more info to share about Richard 😀 bjnlsgenealogy.substack.com/p/richard-la...

I am glad I tuned into the tale end of #OnePlaceWednesday #Live yesterday for some interesting conversation #GenHour

I've been focusing on my Kyeburn Diggings #OnePlaceStudy this week including sorting out Cemetery Records and writing up the information I have gathered about a tragedy that happened in the area #GenHour app.weare.xyz/public/kyebu...

I've been working on my one-voyage study all week. Enrolled in SAG course for setting up website. I've done 3 research articles, 2 profiles and loaded 3 documents. It's still private for now but pleased with my progress #GenHour

Spent the morning at Archives New Zealand checking out files relevant to my Kyeburn Diggings OPS #OnePlaceStudy #OnePlaceWednesday

And this one is just the first in a series to come (alternating across different time zones). Definitely something to attend if you are using the weare.xyz platform to gather together your #FamilyHistory or #OnePlaceStudy research or thinking about using it for that purpose..

Hello #GenHour I haven't made it here lately ... Mainly because I am not very organised this early in the morning and then forget to follow up afterwards. I have generally been keeping busy writing #FamilyHistory narratives and working on my #OnePlaceStudy

What a lovely idea this is #GenHour

Hello #GenHour. It's 7:30 am ANZAC Day morning where I live and I have just posted this open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

How Are Our Databases Doing? There are now more than 53 million tested DNA kits, and growth has been steady for the past 5 years.

If you missed Taking It Further🔗, the second part of our Chair Janet Barrie’s #OnePlaceStudies workshop for @projectkin.bsky.social, or if you want to watch again, it’s on YouTube. Great #OnePlaceWednesday viewing!

Good morning, #GenHour. This week, I have been rounding up some immigrant ancestors #FamilyHistory #Genealogy open.substack.com/pub/bjnlsgen...

Good morning, #GenHour I know I am late. I got a bit confused with all the clocks going back here and forward elsewhere. I can't promise to make it every week by 7am NZST but I will try. In the meantime have a happy #Genealogy full week. I have some website tidying up to do.

#GenHour We have regulars blogging on Substack & WordPress. I've used Blogger since 2008 & it works fine plus it's quickly/easily indexed by Google search. To get ideas, see 105 #Genealogy bloggers active on BlueSky by going to my blog: climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2025/01/gene... Good luck!

It would be remiss of me not to give this one a little #GenHour plug this evening. I'm so grateful to @familytreeuk.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to talk about mental health, and for Kathryn's help in understanding more about Maud.

Sorry! I missed #GenHour again this week. I have been out running errands in the rain 🌧. This week, I had a pleasant chat with @billmoore.bsky.social and @projectkin.bsky.social about #oneplacestudies. Just hate seeing myself on camera but here it is: open.substack.com/pub/projectk...

Save the date! Our 2025 #OnePlaceStudies Conference & AGM will take place on Saturday 22 November from 14:30 UK time via Zoom.
