Get involved in Family History.
There is so much information appearing on the internet, both of a kind useful for research and also listings of information about individual people, that much in Family History can now be done from home (see, for example, here). But get involved and help! I carry out voluntary transcribing of the UK Civil Registration Index under the FreeBMD project. This aims to make available, free, the whole of the births, marriages and deaths index from its start on 1st July 1837 until 1983. So far it is virtually complete up to about 1940 and much of the following decade is in progress. Volunteeers are always welcome.
As of 16th July 2010 my tally of entries contributed to FreeBMD is over 200,000.
or Google 'FreeBMD'.
I set up my first website in November 2006.
