We hope you all had a lovely Christmas Day and that Father Christmas and his reindeer brought you everything you wanted.
Today the family history fun starts with an activity for all the family - young or old, internet whizz-kid or first timer online!
To kick off Go ON: Start Your Family Tree Week, here’s the first question of seven in our festive family history challenge:
Q: According to findmypast.co.uk’s handy family history interview guide (PDF), when is the perfect time to start your family tree?
To enter findmypast.co.uk’s festive family history challenge just answer the question we set every day between 26 December and 1 January, then send all seven answers together in one email with the subject line ‘festive challenge’ by 10 January 2011 to competition@findmypast.co.uk, including your name, postal address and daytime telephone number. The first entry opened with correct answers to all seven questions will win our first prize, and we have loads of runner-up prizes too! Look at what you could win and see Terms & Conditions.
Now visit findmypast.co.uk’s Start Your Family Tree page to find out about today’s activity and how to start researching your family tree.
If you’ve got children with you today, they’ll love the kids’ guide to family history (PDF) from the Society of Genealogists.
