I have London and Suffolk ancestry, and have visited all the street in Central London that my ancestrs were bor or lived at from Soho to Hackney, and I have visited the villages in Suffolk where my ancestors lived, and I tell you they dont look any different to what they looked like over 100 years ago which is good, so I can get a good feel of how my ancesti lives.

Just got the photos develpoed so i can show my mum. She is not too well at the moment so I hope it will cheer her up! Still trying to sort out all the information out and make sure I don't lose anything. Time to start writing this part of the FH I think! Glad to see it's not just me who is all soppy and sentimental over such things - thank you all for listening and adding your best Genealogical moments to this thread. Alice |

Hi all have just spent the last 2 hours reading lots of threads !!! But found this one very interesting,i was born in London but my mother came from Coatbridge in Scotland, and i can identify with all that has been said, in Feb this year i took a trip up to Scotland with my son and nephew to find where my mother was born and lo and behold found so much more where the house that she was born, is now just a patch of green i could not belive that on that little patch stood at least 20 cottages (miners) and most occupied by my family then had a trip to the old cemetery cost me a fortune in flowers, so many ghosts but my ghosts,sorry if i have rambled on Ann |

Alice, and all, so pleased that I am not the only nutter on here. I just wish I had started doing this 20 yrs. ago. I feel I do not have enough time left to do all the research that I now realise it takes. Have got back on one line to 1200 but most die in the 1800. Carol 430181 |
