Thank you.\n\ngreat...do one on Northern Ireland.\n\nhave many ancestors for the UK Always learn something new from her webinars\n\nI always learn something new from Kirsty, she's an excellent speaker.\n\nI LIKED IT.\n\nI always say "one question answered means two or three more question!" In this case, more pleasurable research findings!!\n\nI enjoy Kirsty's webinars. She is easy to follow and has great tips.\n\nI have been doing research in Scotland and Ireland for awhile and I enjoyed the detailed records that come from there. Thanks for your time in showing other places to look for information. \n\nI have English ancestors and working Irish ancestors for a client...great information...am anxious to check out some of the websites Kirsty gave us. Have her back again!!!\n\nI have Scottish ancestry and was Thrilled to learn about the Scotland's People website!! AND to learn that Scotland has Excellent birth, marriage, and death records. Thank you!!\n\nI learned a few more sources or information to be found on the sources I've already looked at.\n\nI received some excellent new sources to use in my research of my UK ancestors. Thank you\n\nI'll need to view this again to pick up on the things I missed on the first pass. So much useful information. Thanks Kirsty.\n\nInformative, inspiring webinar. Thanks!\n\nInspirational for sure!\n\ninteresting\n\nInteresting webinar. Thanks. Happy Holidays to all...\n\nKirsty covered a lot of resources in a short period. I leared so much . . . can't wait to visit some of these sites. Thanks for another excellent webinar!\n\nKirsty Gray shared so much of her knowledge on Tracing Your UK Ancestry. I learned a lot about searching on Find My Past. I started out with FMP many years ago because my mother and most of her ancestors were born in England. I had no idea what I was doing, so I gave up and started working more on my paternal side. Now I know more about how to search UK records, I will go back to my maternal ancestors and try to fill in the many blanks. Thank you. \n\nKirsty is a fabulous presenter. She provided so many avenues for research in such a short time! Thank you!\n\nKirsty is certainly fun to listen to and gave a lot of good information. I will definitely watch her prior webinars and encourage you to have her present new ones soon. One interest I have is records of the 1709 "Poor Palatines" who came to England looking for transport to the English colonies. My family arrived in May 1709 and left in January 1710. I'd like to find some records of their time in London and names of ships on which they sailed to what later became North Carolina.\n\nKirsty obviously knows her way around UK genealogy. Would be interested in something before civil registration, possibly dealing with 'brick walls' i.e., apparent dead ends. Some ways to tackle them.\n\nKirsty was terrific gave me some wonderful ideas as to how to possibly find my 3x great grandfather.\n\nLearned about new sites and was especially interested in the information regarding Irish research. Very informative. Will subscribe to the blog.\n\nLearned som new web sites:)\n\nLoads of info, loads of notes. Hopefully I will be able to finally find my great-parents in England. So far, all I have is their names. Thanks so much. :-)
