Intrigued by tales from the past? Love #autobiographies? Stay awhile and hear Elizabeth’s story. She was a Lancashire lass who was born in 1918 and lived her life in extraordinary times, coping through the 1930s Great Depression and WW2

Vintage black-and-white family photograph taken around 1974 showing Walter Parker, wearing glasses, a shirt, and a waistcoat, holding his rescue cat, Felix, beside his smiling granddaughter. She is wearing a hand-knitted cardigan, homemade skirt, daisy-patterned blouse, and white knee-high socks. They are standing in a narrow brick passage between traditional two-up, two-down houses on Edmund Street in central Sheffield, Yorkshire.
Happy 141st birthday, Grandad. Walter Parker was born 18 April 1885 into a family shaped by loss. I loved him, but he was distant. It took a decadee of research to understand why.
I wrote a book about it.

Love how a single photo can lead to a connection. Someone on Ancestry had this picture of my 2x great-grandmother Maria Tavendale (Coveny) and '?'. I was able to fill her in "that's my Nana!" Now have contact with a 3rd cousin to share other family photos with #genhour #ancestry #familyhistory #nz

Exploring the 1926 Census of Ireland. My direct family lines left by the early 1920s, but I’m finding wider family links & exploring the changes in the areas my family had lived between 1911 and 1926. The census is free to view.

The newly released census of Ireland for 1926 shows “General trained and maternity nurse” Caroline Cassidy as a ‘visitor’ in my grandparents’ house. Now I know the name of the woman looking after my newborn mother in this photo. She’s the baby on her sister’s lap. #SpeirGorm #census #familyhistory

One of the biggest mistakes in genealogy?
Treating missing records as proof something didn’t happen.
I break this down in my updated ABC guide — it’s changed how I approach research completely.

Sunlight brushes the surface in gentle patterns.
The world feels slower in its presence.
