A Father's appeal

Please get in touch
To my daughters, Kirstie & Fiona Bird, I can't give up looking for you both, even after all this time.
I know 16 years is a long time, but my love for you both has never diminshed and I will never give up hope that one day we will see each other again. I don't ask for much, a letter or e-mail just to let me know how you are doing. So if you can find it in your hearts to get in touch I would love to hear from you both.
All my love, Dad

Website

My website is now online after a week preparing the files. I almost gave up several times but it was worth it. I used gedcom conversion software to create the web and had lots of help from 56KB.

Photos from family

It must be the week for sending photos. My sister, Janet has sent me pictures of her stepson's twins, Jessica & Mia Candlish, also their new kitten George. He is so cute as are the twins who are now 1 year old.

Benjafield One-name study

Benjafield One-Name Study - I'm setting up my one-name study profile with the Guild of One Name Studies. this should be on-line soon but I would prefer to wait until I can add my website link. Web writing is a new area for me but it is enjoyable if time comsuming.

Whoops, forgot to mention the Bird family on my previous post

As this is our first blog it seems appropriate to announce the arrival of the newest family member, Mary's first grandchild, Phoebe Charlotte.

As the blog name indicates, this will be a family history record for new contacts and family members.
