Update on the Titanic research

We have 4 days to go before the Titanic open day and still lots more to do i know we get it all done but until it is up and done then i can relax  
this has been a mix of emotions for me has well has loved doing it some of the stories are so sad like the post worker who promised his sweetheart a kiss when he got back and sent her a postcard from the ship and he never come back he died at sea
the man who was going to get off at the next port  and never got there 
all the poor pets  lost there life  the Titanic is full of sad and happy stories so its been great doing this open day and remembered the man who is buried in our village he was on the Titanic and came home only to go to war in 1918 and was killed there he only been in the war 8weeks  these are the stories that need remembering and told of how brave some of them were and that their memories  live 
on thank you for reading call again soon :).

come out wherever you are

Today had a task to find a man who changed his name 3 times took about 4hours to find his 3 names but did it in the end.
Doing family history is not all find in a hour or so some times it can take months or even years to find what you are looking for.
There is a man in my class that i teach found out he was related to two other members so be careful what you say to people they maybe related to you lol.
You also maybe related to someone famous and do not know till to start .
I think everyone need to know were they come from and who there ancestors  were once you start you will not want to stop. when i start a new family history i am up till 4am doing it I been doing family history now for almost 24years and i still get a buzz out of it. I love to see the look on peoples face when they find someone and I love putting the jig sew together, because that is what family history is a big jig sew that has no corners and no end. and a joy forever.
The very first family history book was the Bible the 1st chapters are the start.
anyway that is all for today call again soon :)
