Genealogist and house historian
“Family history is more than just names and dates... it leads to a greater understanding of history in general”
HOW DID YOU GET INTO GENEALOGY?
I first became interested in genealogy as a teenager when some Australian relatives made contact while tracing their family history. As long as I can remember, I have had an interest in local and social history and this came to the fore even when I studied history at degree level. To me, family and house history encapsulate, at a micro level, social and local history.
