My CAWTHORN, SCOTT & DeSilva PALMER Family History Pages

     Why on earth did I start all this?

     About September 1999, I remembered that my mother had many copious notes relating not only to her own
     family history but to my father's also. We had talked many times before about putting our Family History
     together but, (and does this sound familiar?) we'd never got round to it. I also wanted to improve my computer
     skills and after much recommendation, downloaded the "Brother's Keeper" database to use for 
     recording family information.
     
     Later, after a spell in hospital, I began recording this information, using initially my Birthday Book as a guide for 
     immediate family members, (while I got used to how "Brother's Keeper" worked!), and gradually moving on to my 
     mother's notes.  And just like Topsy, the whole project just "growed".
