This
is a hobby that I started about a year ago.
It is one of those hobbies, which can take over your life if you are not
careful. Facts that you can come across
are fascinating, finding relations you did not know existed and also black sheep
of the family.
There are many ways of finding information
and the Internet is one of them, there are hundreds of sites dedicated to
genealogy. I have only recently started
to use the Internet but I am sure it will be very useful.
My
brother has some old photographs but no one knows who all the people are. I
would like to put some names to these but this is not easy to do unless I can
find some living relations who can help.
My
mother was born in Wales and this year we had a holiday in the area and found
the house where she was born and the grave plot where her mother and
grandmother are buried. We asked around
if anyone knew of any relations but unfortunately we did not find any. We
visited the local library where they had books of the area when my mother lived
there, at the beginning of 1900.
