The Douglas Archives

A collection of historical and genalogical records

Avatars

The little photograph that accompanies members entries is called, I think, an avatar. Mine appears at the top of this article (could be better, I know!) I thought it would be fun to change the default shaddowy image to a Douglas 'personality'.
However, now that I see it in use, it does not seem so suitable for our lady members!

So, I will take advice. Do we keep it, or junk it?

It does not seem possible to have one for men and one for women.

Maybe just the Douglas crest would work for anyone who doesn't want to create their own.

Making conections

The more information you can give about the people you mention, the more chance there is of someone else connecting with your family.

Dates and places of births, deaths and marriages all help to place families.

Professions also help.

'My great-grandmother mother was a Douglas from Montrose' does not give many clues to follow up! But a bit of flesh on the bones makes further research possible. But if we are told who she married, what his profession was and where the children were baptised, then we can get to work.

Maybe it is time to update the information in your profile?
