Imagine the hours and costs involved in digitising our records.
Being able to access digital records online is a bonus when researching. It can save vast amounts of money in travel and accommodation costs to have to visit the repository in person.
Records online also can allow you to research at anytime of the day you have the time.
Don’t forget however you should be recording the source of these inline records as the link can be archived and not so easily found next time.

Thank you to Dianne and her helpers for a great Christmas Lunch yesterday. It was a fabulous time catching up with members, realising our lack of drawing skills and technology jargon.
Hopefully many of our ‘artistic’ works will make it into our family history stories.
