A
Popular Hobby: Tracing your
family tree, or genealogy, (there is a difference but don't worry about
that right now), is fast becoming one of the most popular hobbies on the
planet! ....In fact, it has
been said that genealogy is now second only to angling in popularity!
Actually it's much more than
a hobby because by researching your ancestors and recording your ancestry,
you are creating a LEGACY, not only for your own offspring but for future
generations who will be so grateful that you took the time to record their
ancestors!
Here are the rules!:
Rules?.........You'll soon learn there are no rules. There are however
plenty of dead ends and wild geese to chase!
But don't be put off. Here
are some of the benefits of this great hobby:
You WILL get around
to seeing (and maybe meeting for the first time) some of your long lost
relatives. You will also enjoy this..........believe me!
You obviously have access to
the Internet........Or you wouldn't be reading this........So you will
soon be using one of the messenger services to chat with distant
cousins etc.
You will definitely meet
lots of new friends (researching their family trees).
You will begin a whole new
social life when you join your local 'Family History Society'.........Which
you MUST! For that is the one place you will learn the most about
your new hobby. (We have put a list of
'Family History Societies' on this site).
That's just a brief outline
of this fascinating hobby which we have come to love.
We hope you enjoy your visit
to our site. If so, tell your friends - if not please tell us!

pleased to notify you of the arrival of the 1841 English and Welsh census.
