There are hundreds, thousands – maybe even millions of genealogical sources – and the previous 19 episodes have only really skimmed the surface of this fascinating hobby.

This time, I look at some of the things that don’t easily fall into any of the previous topics… a mixture of family history odds and ends that, hopefully, you’ll find useful and inspirational.

Much of the content has been derived from messages and communication I’ve had from my listeners over the last year or so, and I’ve collated some of the most useful into this handy episode.

Contents include; general philosophies on family history, suggested sources that you may not have discovered – in fact, a veritable smorgasbord of subjects that may help you discover your back story.

Please do keep sending your hints and tips and I’ll include them in future episodes.  If you’d like to join me for chat on an upcoming podcast, or would like to suggest a topic, it’ll be great to hear from you.

Recommended drinks to accompany this episode: To reflect the mix of topics, a cocktail of your choice

Recommended biscuits to accompany this episode: For the same reason, an assortment. Preferably with those pink wafers.
