My main hobby (obsession) is genealogy, the study of long-dead family & tracing relations. My father's family came from Belarus in Eastern Europe: my mother's from Poland. I have drawn up a Family Tree with over 2,000 individuals, who come from all over the world. I travelled to Belarus, South Africa, Canada, Israel, USA & Scotland. It's a labour of love. Here's some photos from the past & a list of useful links, in case you want to trace your family.
