What's New?
The following is a list of the major changes to this web over the last month, with the
most recent changes shown first:
- August 20th 1999
- Wylde dynasty is posted. This family line has been contributed
to THE DICKSONS NET by Nicholas Wylde who is researching this line. If you have a
connection to the Wylde family please e-mail the webmaster and we will pass on your request
to Nicholas.
- August 20th 1999
- In my personal library, I have over the years, collected over 100 books on family
history, social history (the history of people and communities) and genealogy. It seems
logical therefore to provide a list of what 'works for me' and what didn't. Each book will
be reviewed and a page of information supplied including a summary of the chapters in the
book. There is also a hyperlink from each book review to the on line Book Shop Amazon,
where it is still possible to get hold of the book. When the book is out of print, enough
information is provided to provide to a library who operate within an inter-library loan
scheme. I have posted the first five reviews today in Recommended
Books.
- August 12th 1999
- RootsWeb is by far the largest web site devoted to internet genealogy, you can do a SURNAME
SEARCH of their huge database from here
- August 10th 1999
- Transportation of Convicts, especially to Australia was a dire event. For Irish convicts
who received transportation convictions you can search the
database from 1788.
- August 5th 1999
- Quayle dynasty posted. This line is traced back to the
William Quayle & Elizabeth Pankenberg union. Includes family associations
with Cook, Baxter, Wilson, Huxtable, Dickson, Turner, Ritchie, Richardson, Winters,
Russell, Gilling, Hart
- July 25 1999
- New to Genealogy tutorial! This is still very much under
construction, but always worth a visit.
