Thank you so much, everyone... I will do my best to speak with you all individually cuz I loved reading all your feedback on this.. and I  appreciate your help... I think I am ADHD because I rush through everything and find to so hard to focus on just one thing at a time.. Something I battle with each day.. I absolutely love researching Fam history... I just get annoyed cuz I want it all done NOW hahahaha and that is impossible as all things take time.. I have brought up all of my 9 kids and now I have so much time on my hands and I find it hard to sit still and  really focus hahah but I am working on it.

Family History Beginners Board / Hiii everyone can you help me feel more motivated please And less anxious

Hi everyone.. I feel so overwhelmed because I have got loads of names and dates And I am trying to get everything in order on my family tree.. And it seems never-ending.. suppose with everything we start at the beginning our parents and grandparents... And so on, but I think I am getting out of my depth with things.. I love doing family history research but it makes me feel so anxious, does anyone else feel this way? How many hours a day of the week do you set aside..? Maybe I should start by setting just a bit of time aside in order to really focus... I've done very well up to now... I have gone back to the 16th century with a  few sides of my family's genealogy...

Some of my ancestors are from Roscommon and of irish blood.. the Mcoys. would love to hear of  anyone from that area and who would like to share the history and experiences, stories of old  of the place which my ancestors also  lived.

I just love doing family history research.. I am still learning about how its done, its exciting and a slow process.. I traced my granddads family back to the 1400s  and discovered many 4th and 5th cousins who are all on facebook.. if we have any Budds on here, I am sure we might be related haha  I also have Macoys from Roscommon  I have Oldfields.. and Bunneys .. Elliotts..  Lahneys.. wilsons.. copemans and the list will go on and on.  I think it would be fun in sharing our family names and lets see if we can find any family connections.. ya never know, we might find some new cousins and find out more information about our families... so exciting

Each day I have two melt downs.. after a good cry I always feel much better.. I worry so much about my older kids and grand kids.. Are they taking this seriously ? are they social distancing themselves... My oldest daughter was working at James Cook hospital a few weeks ago.. And my heart was in my mouth.. as she has two small toddlers. My youngest son is still with me and is 16 and autistic.. This is effecting him so bad, so when I have my mini breakdowns/ melt downs or what ever you call it .. I cry in private, I know he will be devastated to see me cry and get upset.. so I need to be strong. I have a journal in which I write down all my thoughts every odd day or so.. I am trying to teach my self how to knit and I love music.. Music gets me through this more than anything... And I am lucky to have a garden.. I am so sorry for those who do not have a garden And I am so sorry to those who are really really struggling with this... it is heartbreaking for all. but we have to find things which we love doing and also to find new things to learn and to distract our minds... I am going to get back on track with my family history.  And I think its so good to be able to come on here and express ourselves and get things off our minds.. right now my heart is pounding out of my chest.. My hubby has just came back from doing our shopping and bought crisps and chocolate for this Easter weekend and my eyes lit up hahaha ohhh I cant wait to get stuck into that lot.. I am also worried about putting on loads of weight and getting unhealthy... its said that we really need to take care of our bodies and eat healthy because if any of us get this dreaded corona.. we need to be strong to fight it off.... The nasty evil bleeding THING... I really hope that it dies out soon....LETS JUST KICK ITS ARSE! some one please tell me it will die soon.. ?flaming heck what a mess the world is in right now... but I send all my love to each and every one of you, and your families... stay as safe as you can and dont be worried about coming on here and poring your heart out... we are all allowed to share how we feel at this time... I am so grateful for this lovely group,   its something else to keep us all going isn't it.  I am going now cuz I have lots of bags of crisps and chocolate bars to wipe clean with antibacterial wipes.

Family History Beginners Board / Hello everyone, I am looking for help with my Elliot family research
« on: Friday 10 April 20 14:08 BST (UK)  »
Its been a while since I was last on here, And I just want to say that I am so over joyed with all the help I got last time in seeking out my kindred dead.. what amazing and beautiful souls we have on here.. This is my first attempt at seeking out my Elliot side of my family...

All I have at the moment to go on is my grandmother Doris, she was born Doris Elliot and married my grandfather.. Cyrus Bunney.. My nana was born in Montague street Hartlepool in 1914 on the 14th of December.  she was only two days old when the Bombardment of Hartlepool hit and all of the surrounding town  areas too... its very historical and many lives were lost.. but luckily enough... My nana and her family were safe.. and im so glad they were, otherwise I would not be here to tell the story haha I suffer real bad with Anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder and I find it hard to focus properly and this is why im always looking for some help and guidance and some support in learning how to become a better family history researcher... so I will be ever so grateful for any help given, thank you in advance.. Also I always keep my eyes open for any one who may have any family connections to my family lines... I have met many cousins in my research
