I got bitten by the genealogy bug during the Covid-19 pandemic. It started off as simply trying to find out a little more about the great-grandmother whom the family maintained was murdered by her husband and it mushroomed from there.
Some of my ancestors, often those that have been the hardest to research, led most interesting lives. It seemed a shame that their stories should be known only to me and so I created this website to share them.
Not all of the people whose stories appear on this website are on my direct bloodline but all played a part in the lives of those who are. The stories of people who are not relatives are listed as Strays everyone else is listed under their family name.
