I have decided to start writing a family history blog to record my own family tree, to promote interest in our hobby, and to hopefully find people with similar interests to my own. I have shared the links below. Any comments and feed back are most welcome, both positive and negative. Please feel free to comment on the blog pages as well.
I have also started writing a blog for Family History Magazine, see link below

Names I am researching are:

Keyes in Prittlewell
Wootton in Herefordshire and London
Stampa in Edinburgh
Jack in Glasgow

Re: Writing a Family History Blog
Google was the beginning of my family history addiction. I googled my father's name and discovered he had a half-sister. I also met a third cousin who lived in the house his grandfather had built in 1921, and found our family relatives in the USA via an online obituary.
Revealing family secrets is a trait of google. Research has become so very different in the 21st century, although many of my searches were based on a series of family notes written by my grandmother's sister over 50 years ago.
Enjoyed your article - thanks
