Keith meticulously, and very clearly, explained the opportunities afforded by the wealth of map information available on the internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keith then talked us through his personal system of record-keeping, developed over the eight years he has been researching his own family tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The members of the Family History Group sat spellbound for over 2 hours as Keith shared his extensive knowledge with us.  As a small reward for the huge amount of work Keith had clearly put into his presentation he was presented with a token of our thanks (photo below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very best wishes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;from Lorely<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Leader:&nbsp;<strong>Lorely Griffiths<\/strong><br>Email:&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"mailto:family.history@u3ajavea.com?subject=%20Family%20History\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">family.history@u3ajavea.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"160\" src=\"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Family-History-211025.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43602\" style=\"width:546px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Family-History-211025.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Family-History-211025-300x150.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Using Maps in Family History<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14881,"featured_media":1676,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[216,108],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-familyhistory","category-news"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-13 08:25:47","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/14881"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43601\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/u3ajavea.com\/info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
