@genealcymru.bsky.socialThanks Barbara, I'm glad you were able to make it. It was a really fun time and has even gotten me thinking of new directions to look into :) #Genealogy
@genealcymru.bsky.socialI'm very sorry to hear that. If you'd like to join us for the chat you're more than welcome 💜 All I really know to say is there's resources throughout my blog (genealcymru.com/albsc-project/). I got an email the other day from someone with a similar experience saying they found it helpful. Big hugs!
@genealcymru.bsky.socialMy watch party with @sogorg.bsky.social's All About That Place is happening in 1.5hrs, to talk about how we can write the lives of our ancestors who died by suicide with compassion & in a way that can help people today. Stop by and have a chat! #Genealogy www.community.sog.org.uk/events/event...
@packrat74.bsky.socialReposted by @genealcymru.bsky.social#AncestryHour I encourage everyone who is stuck in their #FamilyHistory or #genealogy to take a break, find the local newspapers, and just read them to see what's happening in the places your people lived. You don't have to have a formally registered #OnePlaceStudy. Just have fun exploring.

@genealcymru.bsky.socialI wrote a short post about discovering the identities of two unknown people in a strange old family photo & how that led me to some migration-related surprises. #Genealogy #Wales #WelshHistory #FamilyHistory genealcymru.com/2026/09/18/l...
@genealcymru.bsky.socialI just found my earliest evidence of marriage for a family I'm researching: their marriage license from 1746! I wish they were my ancestors, but they're still an interesting bunch. #Genealogy
@jenniph.bsky.socialReposted by @genealcymru.bsky.socialAs part of a fundraising initiative for 2wish.org.uk, I’ve selected a genealogy-related challenge. 74 short biographies of direct ancestors, with exactly 74 words each. This is the first instalment (including a link to donate if so inclined):

@allthosebefore.bsky.socialReposted by @genealcymru.bsky.socialI've been playing with tithe maps from @thegenealogist.bsky.social. The plots marked in green were owned by my 4x GGF, William Bellamy (1784-1842). The map covers part of the tything of Elton in the parish of Westbury-on-Severn, Gloucestershire. (There's some OS map overlay showing.) #FamilyHistory

@genealcymru.bsky.socialPart way through mapping out the mid-19th C. farm boundaries in Llanfair Clydogau for my #OnePlaceStudy & realised all these farms are leased by my 6x grandma's brother, his daughters, and his nieces and nephews... all at the same time. It's already like half the parish! #Genealogy
@ainedonnghaile.bsky.socialReposted by @genealcymru.bsky.socialHappy Saturday genies!
I'm at my #FamilySearch Center this morning if anyone needs a limited-access record copy.
@genealcymru.bsky.socialI just learned abt Katherine Philips the other day in relation to my #OnePlaceStudy. She wrote a poem abt a nobleman from Llanfair Clydogau. Also read a cool article abt her called Archipelagic Coterie Space: K. P. & Welsh Women's Writing. #Genealogy
@ainedonnghaile.bsky.socialReposted by @genealcymru.bsky.socialI am at my #FamilySearch Center for a few hours this afternoon if any genie needs a limited-access record copy.
