Genealogy Cafe
My mum passed away on 31st July this year. As a lifelong genealogist, it's time to tell the story of the lives of my ancestors, especially my parents, and I'm going to tell stories about my own life and my adventures in family history. Some of the stories are told in the words of my ancestors.
These are my "Goes Personal" episodes. I'm also restoring the 5 episodes that I originally published in 2020-21.

Episode 4
In this episode, I tell the story of my search for a 17th century man called John Clark. Learning points include:
- Why you should keep a research log
- Searching for old books on Google Books
- Why Wikitree is a fabulous genealogy resource
- Using Family Search's Research Wiki
At the end of the podcast, I've asked how you would approach this research.
