For my sons 1st birthday, I am doing a time capsule for him to open on his 18th. I have asked family and friends to write him a note. My uncle has sent him a lovely note and a beautiful Sgian Dubh. With 5 pages of history attached. #familyhistory
I am so grateful and I can't wait for my son to open and read through all of the letters from his relatives in years to come! Hopefully, it sparks an interest in genealogy. #familyhistory#genealogy
#MyGenealogyStory I loved hearing all of my mother's stories she had to tell. When she passed away in 2015 I really didn't them to be forgotten. It began with my mum and before I knew it I was researching as many generations as I could 😊
The family history bug is spreading! So far I have got my wife, my eldest stepson and my mother-in-law interested and they are now researching different lines in their family history. A victory for me 😆#familyhistory
Got a call from my uncle today. He is sending me some old photos that he is sure I've never seen before. One of them of my mother as a baby. I am so excited! #familyhistory#genealogy
@Historylady2013 I don't understand why it would be viewed as guilt-tripping rather than just asking a simple question to people that share a hobby? If people have made goals that is grea, share them. If not, then that's great too, scroll on or interact if you wish����🏼♀️
Best place for YDNA testing? (I'm in the uk). I have finally found a male relative willing to do it for me! Also mtDNA testing for myself? #DNA#genealogy#familyhistory

2022 I will have two projects on the go.
1. Create a #FamilyHistoryBook to share with family members. Any tips/advice will be appreciated from those that have done this before!
2. #52Stories project to help write my history to pass down to my children. #Genealogy
