Some great resources in this presentation. Thank you
Looking forward to Helen Smith’s presentation. #Connections2025
2nd connection during Connections 2025. Pauline Cass in her presentation Leaving home, Finding home: Bavaria to New South Wales and Queensland mentioned Vincent Kaufline and wife Eva. Two of their children George and Annie married into my Agnew family in Cooma. #Connections2025 @cassmob.bsky.social
And when his sentence expired he went back to Scotland.
First connection in Judy Russel’s wonderful presentation- 9G uncle Gilbert Milroy was sent to Jamaica.

I have just listed to this and I'm now off to visit the records about Carrick-on-Suir. Fingers crossed.
Anyone use Family Atlas - genealogy mapping software? Thoughts? #RootsTech #genealogy
In case not known already, Crista Cowan from Ancestry has a series of 7 videos on the Genealogical Proof Standard up on YouTube here. 😎

Is this place of birth?
@daniellelautrec.bsky.social thanks for your SAG presentation. Think I'm on the way to having Notion worked out. I've even set up some research questions and tasks and actually working on them.
Will we have access to any recordings of sessions? In some time slots I want to go to all 3 sessions. #connections2025
A few hours scanning today. I need to get my family photos under control!
Thanks, my husband has family here. Looks like I know what I'm doing tonight.
One name at a time.
Finally published the 6th post about Jacob Scheef's holiday from Armidale to visit his family in Germany in 1885. As I had missed this post, I had to change the positing date so it appears before the 6th post.

Just finished watching two family history connect webinars from the Society of Australian Genealogists. I can definitely recommend The cause of death Parts 1 & 2 with Patrice Connelly. Off to look at my ancestors' deaths in more detail.
I’ve registered.
I'll be at #Connections2025 . See you there.
Having fun tonight. Using Transkribus to read old family letters in German written from the 1850s to the 1890s. Then putting the German text into ChatGPT to translate. I'm then getting a table detailing those mentioned in the letters, their relationships and other pertinent details.
I'm still on Blogger. What do you do with your posts if you move to another platform?
What a fantastic photo.
I have one prompt to go. 36 - has futuristic technology
So this isn't genealogical, but it's still very cool - and perhaps you could find some sounds to borrow for videos or podcasts you make about your ancestors or other roots-related topics. sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk/search 👂
