ARTICLES
A few articles have popped up in the last couple of days which I thought I'd bring to your attention.
Firstly, there's a little follow-up piece to Thursday's Find My Past TV show.
Writer and researcher, Ros Bott, has penned two articles of late which make interesting reading. There's a look at Charles Dickens' Genealogy, as well as a speculative piece on an aspect of our ancestors' lives which will, in most cases, remain forever (and frustratingly) hidden - see here.
Finally, The Nosey Genealogist offers a few thoughts on the future of the online genealogy giants.
