I write for all five of the UK's high street family history magazines: * Family History Monthly (I'm listed on the 'Meet The Team' panel) * Family Tree * Who Do You Think You Are * Your Family History (I'm listed on the 'Meet The Expert' panel) * Your Family Tree I was previously on the editorial board of Ancestors between 2005-2009 (until its closure by The National Archives), and I also wrote for Practical Family History (which ceased publication in 2010). I've also written on DNA within a major supplement on family history for BBC History in 2005 and in a lengthy article for Ancestry.com's glossy bookezine Discover Your Ancestors co-published with DMG Publishing in 2011. My current writing interests are: * DNA test applications devised by genealogists, their findings, post-Ice Age 'deep ancestry' & human pre-history. * Surname reconstruction: methods, results from projects & relation to other historical research. * The distribution of surnames across England: which ones are where and why. * Online data resources for genealogists, including digitisation programmes and plans. * Online services useful for genealogists. * Online teaching & FH courses. * The accuracy of large-scale transcription projects & online search strategies. Your can read most of my family history-related work of the past half decade on this website: * FH magazine articles are listed below (with major articles emphasised in bold) * pieces in family history society publications, click here, * authorised reprints of articles and blog pieces, click here
