Does anyone know if it is possible to do any courses related to genealogy?
Now I have retired I thought it might be an interesting course too undertake.
thanks

That place in Canterbury that does the genealogy qualifications has different criteria it has made up for different things. I think that if you do one of it's little courses you can call yourself a record agent.,whatever that is.

is, according to my Family History Journal just received today - are people of inquiring minds who wanted to know, prove or disprove something in particular - and so thereafter sought to discover it by our own means, rather that just accept it wasn't known.

I agree entirely and to think OH just says I am nosey!!
