Been using the 1921 Census on Findmypast since its release, but there's something so satisfying about finally adding that first record via Ancestry! #Genealogy#FamilyHistory#1921Census
Just got a photo of my Great Grand Uncle & his adopted son, Harry Sutton Blunt (wife's illegitimate son.) Could the Sutton name link to my Sutton ancestors? Harry’s resemblance to my Great Grandmother (his adoptive aunt) is uncanny—coincidence or something more? 🤔 #FamilyHistory
Here's a tweet for you:
Thought I'd ‘amuse’ myself by looking at old DNA notes from when my results first came in, hoping to pinpoint my MCA with Ancestry’s ProTools. Now down the rabbit hole with no amusement in sight—just pure frustration & confusion! #GenealogyLife#DNADrama
Youngest daughter started her apprenticeship today, so it's back to work after a rather chilled summer. Ready and raring to go! #BackToWork#NewBeginnings#ProudMom"
@theoldbuilding It would have to be another year in NYC. Waking up to a view of the Statue of Liberty every morning is something that I will always cherish.
Researched a cousin who travelled the UK as a nurse. Days later, visited my daughter whose just moved & I drove through the area where she once worked! More surreal—daughter’s boyfriend's grandad lives on the same street! Love these little coincidences of research! #ancestryhour
New Week, New Project! Excited to kick off a special journey delving into a client's family history. They've entrusted me to weave together their ancestors' tales, and I can't wait to uncover the gems hidden within these records. Stay tuned for updates! #FamilyHistory#Genealogy
Loving the fact that the newspaper used to print a list of wedding gifts for a newly married couple! My distant cousins gave the bride & groom a pyjama case!!!
Just discovered this gem! Not only do I now have a picture of these 5 Newman sisters, but I've now been able to trace Elizabeth having previously lost track of her after 1911. I ❤️newspapers!!
Nothing quite as satisfying as embarking on identifying the common ancestors of a DNA match when they only have themselves on their Ancestry tree, & your quick & dirty tree bears fruit in less than 30 mins! 🙌#AncestryDNA
Is it in the job description that to work in Zara you have to be as miserable as sin and as unhelpful as is possible @ZARA@ZARA_Care I’ve yet to be in one store & received even mediocre customer service
Ekin-Su nominating her bestie Louis after exclaiming “who nominated Louis?!” 3 days ago, and then throwing a fit when Marisha nominated her but then kissing Zeze when she nominated her and then sobbing into her teddy.. I’m sorry I can’t #CBBUK
Just thinking about this & wondering why FTM has on this occasion labelled him my "step grandfather" when he was in actual fact a 3rd cousin twice removed.
Whilst I see the benefits of extending the family tree far & wide, sometimes, I do take it a bit to far...Stepson of husband of 1st great aunt of step grandfather of Sadie????!
