Notes:
THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD ONLINE AND IN PERSON AT THE QFHS FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH CENTRE i.e. A HYBRID MEETING. HOWEVER, OUR GUEST SPEAKER WILL BE JOINING US ONLINE. GUEST SPEAKER: Dr Gaye Wilson. Dr Gaye Wilson earned a doctorate in Egyptology after many years of studying the ancient world. Due to the lack of jobs world-wide in that field, she has now turned her attention to more modern historical pursuits, centred around Australia and her local area. Gaye came to family history in 2020 when her family-historian sister died unexpectedly. She rapidly learned the ropes and is currently trying to make sense of the 40 years of research her sister left behind. A Master of History degree at the University of New England in Armidale gave Gaye more historical skills, leading to expertise in Australian cemetery studies and military history. As a professional editor and personal coach, she is passionate about getting research out there for others to see and use. Today she is sharing her perspective on family history and where it fits into the bigger picture of historical research. Presenting... times vary between 1pm and 7.30pm Please check the calendar carefully. You are welcome to attend as a visitor. Note: This event is held in QLD time, AEST: no daylight saving.
