Family Tree News 10 December 2011

Two more website updates this week. Many thanks to Andy for providing useful info about his family member Alfred Kershaw who worked at a Jewellers in Spon End and was killed during the Blitz. Also, I would like to thank Megan for sharing her memories of war-torn Coventry. Follow the link to read her story.

On a different note, I thoroughly enjoyed reading the latest issue of the Coventry Family History Society which is just out. Head on over to http://www.covfhs.org/ if you are interested in joining up.

Family Tree News 03 December 2011

Have you considered purchasing one of my family tree gift certificates as a splendid Christmas gift for a loved one? These can be cashed in after Christmas Day to commence research into the family history of the lucky recipient. Contact me for details.

Between now and Christmas I am working hard completing existing research projects for Christmas presents, so if you wish to place an order now I will be happy to start work for you in January.

Thanks to Barbara B from Austrailia who got in touch regarding the old occupation of Tripe Boiler. My husband has now added it to the Dictionary of Old Occupations.

Thanks also to the various people who sent me info this week regarding the Coventry Blitz. I will add these to the site shortly.
