PERSONALS... Trove Tuesday 13th Dec 2022

Personals can be a great source of information, much of which you might never have considered. There may be guest lists at weddings, or a 21st or even a funeral.. You may find where that missing person moved to, or what happened to them. There are often clues about families who are related .. previously unknown to you. 

Don't dismiss an area because you have never thought there could be a connection. Also, consider names that are spelt differently. I know it's very hard to believe, but there are sometimes errors in reports.

PERSONALS .... TROVE TUESDAY 1st Feb 2022

Personals can be very interesting, especially if you find some of your ancestors are named. Even so, it can be enlightening reading about what was happening years ago... TROVE gives us a great insight into the lifestyles and the events that our ancestors lived through.

Happy hunting...
