LG, we have a Boswell's cafe in Reading where my friend and I meet, is that anything to do with yours?

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 3 Jul 2021 18:36

That is exactly what I would have done too.

I found it amusing that when I was a child and we were have tea with my Nan, we would go out to play and Nan would say " don't play with the Black children" it was their surname, and they lived in the camp up the road, but we did anyway lol. And my cousin married one of them lol.

:-D :-D :-D well I think in some ways we are quite alike. I have the very well known Boswell family

ZZzzz

ZZzzz Report 3 Jul 2021 13:25

Wouldn't that be ironic if we had the same names our trees, and were related. :-D

Maz, I scan mine onto my computer give them a number and then store them in boxes. Make sure you write names etc on the backs and also the ref number and keep them in numerical order so you can find the original if you want to. Can't you tell I was an Archivist :-D :-D :-D.
I have Romany in my tree ZZzzz :-D

I have travellers in my family tree so maybe they were part of that, I have yet to find it out though.
