I've been researching since the early 1980s.
But remember it's not how long you've researched your #genealogy. It's whether you've tried to up your game and improve your skills that matters.
Ah thank you. And thank you for having me β€οΈ

A few years ago I wrote a 3-part blog about My Genealogy Alphabet. Take a look and see if there are any types of records that are new to you.

Iβve had a wonderful evening speaking with my accomplice - the wonderful
@dunedingenie.bsky.social - to the @sogorg.bsky.social about transported convicts.
What better way to celebrate #WorldBookDay than to pre-order a copy of my brand new book, Genealogy Methods and Techniques, due to be published (UK) two weeks today!

Printed text, "Depriving Catherine of Royal Style"
Oh Henry VIII, no matter how much you proclaim it, you can't ever take away Catherine of Aragon's style. Have you not seen Six? She's a queen.
[From Tudor Royal Proclamations]
BOOKING IS NOW OPEN for our week of webinars in July on the theme "The Ones Who Got Away", ranging from case studies on tricky ancestors and more difficult to research groups of people to technological solutions: www.pharostutors.com/webinars

Bastardy examination from 1768 signed by R Sneyd
Payments made to bastards, 1819, including 'Sneyd William'
I use Google Docs for almost all my work and for filing digitised genealogical records. I noticed today that the search function now works with hand-written documents in my folders. A search for 'Sneyd' (a name I knew I had come across but couldn't place) found the name in these 2 records. V. handy!

Another day, another archive. πβ€οΈ
Thankfully, the records Iβm looking at today are a little later. Mid-18th Century.

My brain still hurts from looking at pages of this all day, but Iβm pleased to say I got the answer to my objective in the end.
Exploring an armigerous family from Essex, specifically looking at a branch in the early-mid 1400s.
