Farquhar. She was a dedicated genealogist who spent much of her time helping others discover their family trees. I am amazed that people are still contacting me more than a dozen years after her death to tell me how much she meant to them. I have been quite busy researching other lines of my family tree, but every now and again I get back to my Nova Scotian roots.<\/p>\n<p>I would love to continue my grandmother&#8217;s important work and wish to eventually do a complete overhaul of this site. A lot of the stuff here (particularly census info) can now be easily accessible on major genealogy sites like Ancestry, so I think it&#8217;s time to refocus what this website needs to be. I&#8217;d love to hear from fellow family historians and learn what you all would like to see in this space.\u00a0 This site could become more of a blog, a user forum to share knowledge and research, or something else entirely.
