The Genealogy Major
Presentations, research support and digitalization for genealogy groups — conferences, webpages, books, training and projects.
This is what I do
The Web Link List
A curated directory of 359 genealogy research links: archives, record sets, societies and tools. Checked, and the dead ones removed.
Website Design
Clean, fast, straightforward sites — built to be readable and maintainable rather than fashionable.
Digitalization Projects
Getting documents, photographs and records out of boxes and into durable, searchable digital form.
Tools to help out
Small utilities and resources built to take the tedious parts out of research and record-keeping.
Projects
Wall Breaker Genealogy
Genealogy research and the long work of breaking through brick walls in a family tree.
DS Home Computing
Home computing help and services.
About me
I work across genealogy, the web, and digitalization — three things that turn out to have a lot in common. All of them are really about taking something scattered and hard to search, and making it clear enough that someone else can find their way through it.
