#BIFHSGO conference begins tomorrow. The topic is research into ancestors affected by poor laws, #workhouses and pauperism. Most people have this in their background somewhere, so it's a great thing to learn about. #genealogy #geneadons

About ten years ago I was accepted into the #UniversityOfStrathclyde #genealogicalstudies programme, which I really wanted to do. I didn't end up taking the course then because we didn't have the money, and I more or less gave up on it. Today one of my colleagues reawakened my interest, so I'm trying to work out how to find the dosh. Life is different now, perhaps we can do it. #genealogy #geneadons

#Genealogists are a special kind of people.

Genealogists may be familiar with the FANs technique (friends, associates and neighbours) for expanding research or perhaps breaking down a 'brick wall'. Has anyone found or used specific software for documenting this type of research? @genealogy #genealogy #Geneadons #familyhistory #genchat

New finding on #osteoporosis: “Researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany and Shandong University in China, identified the cell receptor GPR133 (also known as ADGRD1) as being crucial to bone density, via bone-building cells called osteoblasts.” #DNA #isogg #epigenetics #geneadons https://www.sciencealert.com/new-breakthrough-to-strengthen-bones-could-reverse-osteoporosis#

My sister @Joyfuljan55 is a professional counsellor, and I'm a professional genealogist. We both have our own businesses, and we started talking about merging them. I think a great motto for the combined business would be: "Helping the Living, Finding the Dead". Yes? No? #genealogy #geneadons #counselling #business

I finished three clients' projects over past few days. I feel a great sense of accomplishment. Of course, I'm now finding it impossible to get started on the projects still awaiting my attention. Sigh. #AuDHD #genealogy #geneadons
