Or maybe the Grumpy Genealogist   Confucious

The articles in this section of the WAGS Blog are for genealogy and family history grumps and curmudgeons! 

If you have a curmudgeon or perhaps a grumpy bent - you might be welcome - depending on the weather.

Geoffrey Bolton - image ex http://www.abc.net.au/local/audio/2012/09/18/3592467.htmThere was standing room only at the recent State Memorial Service for Professor Geoffrey Bolton AO.

What's happend so far in Mike's DNA journey... DNA Sequencing2

Well over a year ago (in Feb 2014) I posted a piece about the anticipated DNA test journey that I was about to embark upon.

What's this about? DNA Sequencing

Join me on a personal journey of discovery.
