As added context, before today’s talk, Anne shared a new post about Cecil Young that touched on the realities of this terrible war. Please take a moment to explore this post, particularly for Anne's photographs documenting the young men as they first set off on their adventure.
As a long-time genealogist, storyteller, and blogger, Anne has been a committed supporter of the One-Place Study movement. As she shared in our conversation, she was actively involved in last year’s AATP24, giving two talks about her family. One focused on Whitmore, where her English ancestors were from, and another on this same Australian hamlet of Homebush, where her husband’s family is from.
During our conversation, Anne also shared how she’s used Wikitree’s categories to link people who are connected through a shared experience. In this case, she’s exploring the ardent warriors who shipped off to WWI with Cecil Young in December 1915.
In launching this program during 2024, we had to offer the ten featured talks in pairs for five programs. You’ll find the recording and notes for Anne’s 2024 talk and another talk about research and records from Julie Goucher of Angler’s Rest, about research strategies in Pacific Nations. You can review the recording and notes here:
Please join us tomorrow for our conversation with Diane Grant of Diggy’s Diaspora, who will circle back to talk about her remarkable story last year about the Bayleys plantation in Bermuda and its role in Bussa’s rebellion. Learn more on our event page.
