Nathan’s tracked down his great-granny’s marriage record (despite some sketchy information from Helen) – but he’s wondering is it worth paying for? What will he gain?
This week Nathan and Helen ramble down research paths, discussing the value of family history research logs, pondering on whether to pay or not to pay, and reflect on the ideal ways to pass the family history baton on

With a shiny new year of genealogy opportunities ahead of them, Nathan’s got his DNA test results back and is mulling over what they mean, and Helen’s recommending that he gets down to his traditional research and investigate the 1921 Census – now new on Ancestry – for clues about his family a century ago

After a long 20 minutes Nathan had summoned up enough spit, spat in the tube, sealed the kit, and popped it in the post. But, how was he getting on with the rest of his family history investigations?

This week we conduct a scientific* test in to whether doing family history make you feel that little bit more happy… Did Nate do any of his family history homework? Tune in to find out. Plus, we have a Q&A on war medals
* the test was not really scientific, but we feel as though we have a clear answer.
** in the recording at one point Helen rants about science. Take her with a pinch of salt. She is neither a scientist nor a DNA expert. She has a little knowledge… and we all know what that means…
