This blog is designed to record the findings of our family history, mainly for the benefit of the family, and to document the dead ends, the breakthroughs and the journey.
I’ll post the family stories as I’ve written them to now, and I’ll be grateful to anyone who can add further information or pictures, or point out errors.
Particular thanks to my sister Julia and my cousin Mandy who between them have done much more of the work than I have.

A really useful tool

Julia's DNA test has really got us going again on the family history.

Some time ago at the Knitting and Stitching show in Birmingham we happened to talk to the people on the stand of the Nuneaton and North Warwickshire Family History Society. (www.nnwfhs.org.uk) Nothing to do with our family connections and nothing to do with knitting or stitching either. But there you go.

We bought from them what has proved to be a most useful publication - The Ultimate Portable Family History Record Book. This is the most useful layout for a family tree that I've ever come across, and I really recommend it. I've added in all the ancestors we know about, and now we can set about filling in all the gaps.
