Updated bios, tree and photos
Posted 12 May 08 by Scott Andrew Bird. Filed in site.
Several updates to the site have been made over the past few days, with a number of others in progress. So far, a few bios have been reworked; including : After testing out several pieces of genealogy software over the past few months, I've settled on a combination of Reunion (for local data) and The Next Generation (for the online version). Both are superb, and very highly recommended. You'll find an updated tree here. Finally, a number of old photographs and certificates are being scanned; and put online (as appropriate) for general use in your research. These are in the Family Tree gallery on my SmugMug site; and yes, there are many, many more. If you're after a particular photo of a Bird family member, just ask.

Welcome to the Family Tree of noted Australian writer and photographer Scott Andrew Bird. Here you'll find a number of fascinating aspects to this ever-growing database, including :
- the tree itself (currently produced using Reunion and The Next Generation)
- Scott Andrew Bird's Ahnentafel (the first 20 generations, anyway)
- links to various genealogy articles by this site's authors
- an index of surnames found in the abovementioned tree, and their origins
- overviews of the key locations lived in by the families in this tree
- overviews of the key occupations held by people in this tree
- photographs of many family members
Additionally, there are a great many certificates, grave photos and other source material which is freely available to other people researching the same family lines. Send me an email or leave a comment on this site.
