The Big One!

Review January 2021

Towards the end of 2020, I picked up my Big One! Project for the time in years. With successive Covid 19 lockdowns I had no further excuses!

next.

Changes since last worked on

There have been a number of changes since I last published the 12 reports:

- Discovery of the names of additional ancestors:

Adamson (Neville)
Smithers (Pinnion)
Sly (Nye)

- Publication of the 1939 Register

Work Undertaken

I updated the list of ancestors in:

- the in the Template
- each of the 12 reports and
- the Names Index

adding a note to each name to indicate which family the names come from

Methodology

I had to remind myself on how to compile some more reports!

A. Open a new Family History Research Report for a new name using the Template.

B. Transfer content from existing Progress Report:

- 1. Mini-Family Tree
- 2. Summary of Research to date
- 3. Progress over the years
- 4. Research undertaken
- 5. Other Research undertaken
- 6. Link to summary, Where they were and what they did, and
- 7. Any Family Tree Maker sheets

C. Add Appendices from website:

- Birth, Marriage & Death Certificates held
- Census Records held
- Parish Records held
- Misc Information/Documents Held

D. Look in binder for:
- Misc Information
- any other names to add to Names Index
