    Family Trees

    I have been doing the family tree over recent months and I have to admit that it is an interesting exercise. However, one thing that disappoints me (and any other researcher) is the destruction of Census returns up to 1901 by the government. It makes the research that bit harder.

    Did you get past the first branch?
    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    Yeah, I did, and I could trace back into the 19th Century. The 1901 Census Database is a great help.
