Seeking help to decipher the youngest Partridge child's first name on this 1906 Census from Manitoba, Canada, Ancestry has the name transcribed as Crary #Genealogy
there is something new on Ancestry, if you have a #FamilyTree on #Ancestry then on the profile page of each person in your tree is this new feature Create Network, you can now create connections for your ancestor/relative beyond people's immediate family, I have not tried it out as yet #Genealogy
I live just to the left of K'gari (formerly known as Fraser Island), and for a while we thought #CycloneAlfred may of been impacting the area I live in but now moved further south, just wishing everyone in SEQld and NNSW to stay safe #Queensland #NSW
Never give up searching, one day what you are looking for just may well turn up, keep looking, keep searching, that is what I do with #Genealogy do the research
we have a cyclone named Alfred heading towards the Coast which could potentially impact the area that I live in, it is looking likely that the cyclone may stay out at sea but could still impact the coastline, its a case of fingers crossed for the best and wait and see #CycloneAlfred #Queensland
