Confessions of a Genealogist

Ok its genealogy confession time …

I am a hobby genealogist, and I have worked in the Australian genealogy industry for over over 20 years now (no, that’s not the confession bit, we’re still coming to that), and while I’ve always had an interest in family history, it was only about 6-7 years ago I took the plunge into researching my own family (confession still coming).

Why the delay? Simple … I knew I’d be totally hooked completely obsessed, and would be frustrated when I don’t get time to do as much research as I’d like (sounds familiar doesn’t it – I can see you agreeing with me), and the other was that much of own family’s research had been done my dad.
