Flourishing? Many-branched?

Or lop-sided (mine is a bit, at the moment)? A seedling? Not yet started?

If yours needs a bit of nourishment and care, now is a good time to start looking after it -

It’s Start Your Family Tree Week in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

And there are sites to give us tips, encouragement and even competition prizes. I’m going to be looking at Findmypast Ireland and UK and at Chris Paton’s British GENES as well as Ancestry UK’s Family Tree.

Do you know any others?

About rebelhand

A Rebel Hand is: about Nicholas Delaney, Irish rebel of 1798, sentenced to death, reprieved, transported as a convict to New South Wales, roadbuilder, innkeeper, farmer and ancestor. My great-great-great grandfather. Also about the historical background to his life story, in Ireland and Australia. Other ancestors transported to Australia, like Sarah Marshall, John Simpson and James Thomas Richards, pop up as well.
