Being interested in migration my next talk selection is speaker: Jenny Joyce with β€œWhy Did They Leave? - Motivations for leaving Britain.” #connnections2025 #familyhistory #genealogy
I’m sure Jenny will give us a large list that I can use for NZ also.

Just listened to a great welcome to country with Joseph. I love it when we learn about this country before the recent settlers and about family and past elders. A ”welcome” start to #connections2025. Photo taken and shared with Joseph’s permission. #familyhistory #genealogy

Finally made it to the Sunshine Coast late this week that’s to multiple airline mechanical faults and thus missed connections. Visited the Ginger Factory. Added to the photos I have from earlier visits. Looking forward to #Connections2025 #FamilyHistory #MyHistory

I'll be at the @connections2025 family and local history conference in Brisbane from 21 to 24 March. Are you planning to attend? It is hard to find time to research while travelling but I check for new DNA matches at @MyHeritage most days. Thanks for being a silver conference sponsor. See you there.

I cut and paste for citations so often have material from the one I just worked on. I'm thinking of cutting back on the details and being a lazy genealogist. πŸ˜‰
