Dutch newspapers write about Vincent van Gogh's Y-DNA. I wrote a summary about it. #genealogy #familyhistory #dna

Yesterday evening I gave a presentation to friends and family. In two hours, I explained them what professional genealogists encounter in their work, what kind of products they offer to clients and how they often deal with sensitive information and difficult situations. The audience appreciated my talk a lot, and came to the conclusion that #genealogy or #familyhistory is much more than drawing a family tree.

Pretty cool to be included in the members response section of the American Ancestors weekly newsletter. #genealogy #familyhistory

Reading the Arbuthnott kirk session minutes 1690-1711, full of notes about the family I have been researching for a while. @ScottishGENES would be proud of me.

Today is the official day of Saint Nicholas, a traditional holiday in The Netherlands. As a child I was always very nervous. Had I been a good boy that year, would I get presents? Or punishment? You can guess the outcome… there were always presents. #genealogy #familyhistory #tradition

In the last few months I have developed an interest in why people do #genealogy or #familyhistory. The #psychology aspects of our work are fascinating. For this reason, I started today with “The Psychology of Family History: Exploring our Genealogy” by Susan Moore, Doreen Rosenthal and Rebecca Robinson.

The first blog post I wrote for my website dates from 2015, when I first started my #genealogy business. I had visited the #Waterloo area and seen where one of my ancestors fought against #Napoleon.

After three hours browsing through almost 200 images, I managed to find at least one and maybe two baptisms for the family I am researching. The #genealogy tv show will be pleased. :)
