So she decided to fill in all the blanks on the female lines. 

They then started researching Carol's father John Hinton's line, the rest as they say is history!

There are now over 8000 people on the family tree, all blood relatives or spouses.

So much information and so many stories have been uncovered over the years. Eye On The Past is an insight into their findings and a way to share those stories and images with future generations. We also hope to share our experience, research and tips with your family tree.

Our own family stories can now be found under Family Stories, where we share the lives of our own ancestors and family discoveries. 

We also love the history behind places, churches, local communities and even other people’s family discoveries. We enjoy visiting churches and places of interest together, and occasionally exploring further afield on our travels. Along the way we’ve uncovered fascinating stories, local history and genealogy discoveries that can be found in our History Blog.

We hope our experiences, research and discoveries might help or inspire your own family history journey.

So cast your eye over our past and enjoy our site.
