GAGs - GeniAus' Gems - 19 February 2016

WARNING:  GeniAus' Gems are subject to my personal biases and I make no apology for that. I have a distinctly Australian bias and most of my selections relate to family history but I hope that in these sometimes weekly posts you find some worthy Gems.

I've settled back into my humdrum life after the excitement of Rootstech so have had more time to peruse the posts in my RSS feed this week. One distraction I have is that I am moving my geneacave from a smaller room at the end of the house to a large room up front and centre, closer to our router,the coffee machine and the front door.... plus I have a nicer view of the garden.



1. I concur with what Kirsty says here so I sought permission to copy and post it on my blog too.
