2nd connection during Connections 2025. Pauline Cass in her presentation Leaving home, Finding home: Bavaria to New South Wales and Queensland mentioned Vincent Kaufline and wife Eva. Two of their children George and Annie married into my Agnew family in Cooma. #Connections2025 @cassmob.bsky.social

@daniellelautrec.bsky.social thanks for your SAG presentation. Think I'm on the way to having Notion worked out. I've even set up some research questions and tasks and actually working on them.

Finally published the 6th post about Jacob Scheef's holiday from Armidale to visit his family in Germany in 1885. As I had missed this post, I had to change the positing date so it appears before the 6th post. genealogymatters2me.blogspot.com/2025/02/jaco...

Just finished watching two family history connect webinars from the Society of Australian Genealogists. I can definitely recommend The cause of death Parts 1 & 2 with Patrice Connelly. Off to look at my ancestors' deaths in more detail.

Having fun tonight. Using Transkribus to read old family letters in German written from the 1850s to the 1890s. Then putting the German text into ChatGPT to translate. I'm then getting a table detailing those mentioned in the letters, their relationships and other pertinent details.

So this isn't genealogical, but it's still very cool - and perhaps you could find some sounds to borrow for videos or podcasts you make about your ancestors or other roots-related topics. sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk/search 👂
