Swansea Family History
Welcome to my new Steemit account. Since 2015 I have been writing a family history article for a local Swansea magazine.
I am going to share with you those articles. I hope they will help and are generally interesting to read.
First I have to introduce myself. My name is Charles Wilson-Watkins, and I come from Swansea, though I work away in Surrey. 2018 will be the year where I will be moving back home to Swansea.
I have been doing my own family history since 2000, and it is an on going task. I have over 1000 people in the tree. It is interesting t find where people have come from and what they did as an occupation.
With this in mind, I also help and research peoples own family history.
I have also since 2010 started a massive project of the men from Swansea who went off to fight during the First World War. I am on phase 3. Once completed my results can be found on my website and also in the local library. I will be able to send of results and information to people if they live away!
I will be back in the day of two with my first article, about Birth Certificates
