Today's plan was to finally get round to looking up some people in the 1921 Census. I got slightly sidetracked on the first one and ended up researching a cousin who was a professional cellist in Bristol in the 1920s. He was the first Brit to study at the Mons Conservatoire!

@thomas @genealogy @geneadons Being sidetracked is a serious occupational hazard in this field.

Newspapers has a free weekend. I still have more years to research my line. Last time, I pulled over 400 articles (still extracting all that data).

Should I do it again?

The genealogist in me says “heck, yeah!”

Jane is a genealogy tutor who enjoys helping people discover their family history. She never expected to meet Robert, a famous actor who needs her genealogy expertise. He's also interested in Jane as more than a friend, but Jane is not ready for the media attention and the glamour of dating a star. Can she overcome her fears and find love in the spotlight?
