Blog - 1980s and 1990s

(1983 to 1999)

1995-1999

From 1995 on, all new material has gone straight online onto my website.

The following shows parts of my website in 1999.
This site dates from 1995, but there are no copies of it before 1999.

1990-1994

From 1990 to 1994, I made out family trees on computer offline.
All of this work is now on this site.

1983-1989

From 1983 to 1989, I made out family trees on paper.
All of this work is now on this site.

Part of the BLENNERHASSETT entry in [Burkes Irish, 1976].
It was this tantalising note about Martha Lynne ("8th in descent from King Edward III") that made me realise in 1985 that my Blennerhassett line might connect to the World family tree.

Researching this in 1983 is what got me started researching the family tree.
