Step behind the scenes of my work desk. This is where I share my latest discoveries, detail ongoing research projects, and log new additions to pages across the site.
Recent Updates
- July 2026 – Black Lion Inn
Updated the page following further research into Betsy Wilson’s life after the death of her husband, George.
- Feb 2026 – Irish Family History
Added a link to my new dedicated site, Led by a Letter, featuring an introductory blog post on my Dwyer family line.
Active Projects
- Ravenscroft (Euxton)
Currently deep into a detailed research project on my 5x great-grandparents Thomas and Ann Ravenscroft.
If you have any information or connections to the Ravenscroft family in Euxton, please get in touch via the contact page!
- George & Betsy Wilson
Focusing on confirming George Wilson’s parents. While Betsy’s lineage is fairly clear, George’s remains elusive. I am currently working through records using a process of elimination and looking at catholic records before beginning a narrative draft.
- McDermott (Saddleworth)
Gathering and organising handwritten notes to clarify existing findings and map out the next research steps.
