@MindTheGap2048
Oh, I am hooked on your new 2048 game!
It makes me think of #familytrees and #genealogical pedigree collapse.
Thank you so much!

release will not be until 2051. It is our history, and would bring money into the UK from #Canada, #Australia, and #NewZealand.
It could also help families who are caring for people who have #Alzheimers and #dementia by enabling families to talk about the past.
Win win.

The #USA release #census returns after 72 years. I have read a USA census record of an MI family who I know. It was fascinating, and the family were not in the least bit bothered by it.
The #UK government should release after 60 years, especially that the next full #census

@RachelReevesMP Dear Rachel. Each time a #census data is released after 100 years, @findmypast and @AncestryUK pay the @ONS to make it available. More people then usual then pay local authorities or #GRO for BMD certificates.
The 100 year wait is excessive. Please lower
How about the below Idea of gaining revenue from more #Census releases @RachelReevesMP?
Its our #genealogical history.
Schools could use the additional #Census returns in lessons, encouraging children to become more interested in our #history.

Hi. Does anybody know of an add-in for @msexcel that will extend the date range by several hundred years before 1900? I have been using the long date format and calculations, but that is not possible on pre 1900 dates. Many thanks. Sarah
@Sjd_22@UKLabour What would I want for #Christmas2024 from the @UKLabour government?
Good question!
A more sensible approach to @ONS data, eg the current 100 year wait for #UKCensus data reduced to 70, or 60 years.
I argue that 60 years is perfectly reasonable, and would generate income.
@AFHpodcast Hi. I am a fan, and wanted to share this:

Yes, #Census records are not the only source of #genealogical information, but are a vital starting point.
I think 70 years is ample time (72 the USA), and that the 1951 census should be available.
@TalkTV Andre. Regarding big organisations and power over us...
Being a #genealogy student at @IHGS has taught me NEVER to use my mother's name when taking out contracts etc. That information is publicly available along with your year of birth, and which quarter of the year.

When I tell a friend of a cousin, the cousin concerned knows nothing about the issue.
I have also had my account suspended several times, immediately after posting to a Birth, Marriage and Death Certificate Exchange group.
Are your A. I. systems a bit too sensitive?

@IHGS@ScientistSoph@Online_Courses As my mum never met her paternal grandfather, my finding a WW1 newspaper article about him with a large photo (a striking family resemblance) was absolutely amazing.
I want to write the biographical piece about him.

@IHGS@ScientistSoph I am really looking forward to it!
Each time I sit down to work on Lecture 2, something crops up to stop me. I am debating whether to start and complete Lecture 3, then go back to 2 and start it again.
My other option is to complete @Online_Courses's WW1 course, then finish L2.
@Classicbritcom Have you asked the local newspaper to help? It may be something that they are very interested in. Ditto for any local history / genealogy groups.
