I cannot believe how the last 12 months has flown. It’s taken a year but I’ve finally updated the tree on my blog (find it here). The update is substantial (approximately 45% more people and 71% more families!) and corrects some previous errors. This update will be rolled out to Genes Reunited, Ancestral Atlas and [...]

This update will be rolled out to Genes Reunited, Ancestral Atlas and Ancestry in due course.

Those of you who use Genes Reunited will probably be aware of the facility which notifies you of record matches in your posted tree. I had such a recent match, suggesting that Frederick Elmer HAGESTADT and his cousin, John, were both participants in World War I. A short spell of research revealed that they were, [...]

I had such a recent match, suggesting that Frederick Elmer HAGESTADT and his cousin, John, were both participants in World War I. A short spell of research revealed that they were, unfortunately, casualties.

Frederick fought in East Africa, and is commemorated at the Dar Es Salaam British & Indian Memorial.
His cousin, John, is commemorated at the Trois Arbres Cemetery, Steenwerck, France

R.I.P.

Thanks to the eagle-eyes of one of my contacts, David Measday, an error was found in the parentage of William HEWETT (b. ~1841), husband of Susan KINGSLAND. I had misinterpreted the relationships given to me from a detailed source, and had linked William directly to his grandfather, making his father his brother(?!), thus skipping a [...]

I had misinterpreted the relationships given to me from a detailed source, and had linked William directly to his grandfather, making his father his brother(?!), thus skipping a generation.

I have now corrected the tree and updated the version here. The new tree will hopefully be rolled out to other online presences such as Genes Reunited this weekend.

Thanks for spotting my faux-pas, David!

I have (finally) just done an update to my online tree – but only on Genes Reunited. Of course, since I also use Family Tree maker (2009 now) as a backup (it’s background hint system is great and saves time), you’ll probably also find stuff on Ancestry too. This update correctly indicates (for now; unless proven [...]

I received contact from someone a short while ago via Genes Reunited, following a tree match. It turns out she’s a 2nd cousin (being the granddaughter of one of my mum’s uncles), and lives fairly local! Welcome to the family (tree), Sandra, and may you be one of many!
