@Sandy46943146 @Turi__King @BBCWomensHour @Minnow_Films @keviclifton It often needs genealogy alongside the DNA. Lots of advice out there if you haven’t already had a go

When will I learn: I will just check the workhouse admissions before I stop… oh beep 30 entries for one man in 5 years. Even if there are two entries for one admission that’s going to be some set of admissions…

Really detailed overview of adoption and of these indexes. It’s many years since I’ve used them but they are very useful indeed

[Birmingham Archives & Collections @TheIronRoom]

Did you know Archives and Collections @LibraryofBham is one of the few places in the county where you can access the National Index of Adoptions? This week Paul takes us through the history of adoption in the UK and how to use these resources. Read more:

@danielmloftus Fabulous idea!

Currently looking at an ancestry tree SOOOO fanciful that I’ve been laughing for about an hour. I cannot for the life of me see how they have connected my ancestor to the landed family in question. Not least as the said Bt is dead at date of conception & he died without issue

Really interesting subject here for genealogists, handled wonderfully by the fab Anne. Worth a listen.

Interesting story of a One Place Study. I do wonder if more detailed studies exist. More interesting as it’s my Husbands family village!

There is always one ancestors story that really hits home, even after many years of genealogy. For me it’s currently a British Home Child. https://t.co/Lj6qoh5tRx

[History builders @HistoryBuilder]

As genealogists we deal with death on some level on a daily basis. We often wonder how the families we are researching managed the multiple blows that death dealt them. Here @Johnrashton47 explores how we talk about death, particularly that of a child.
