  5. Two things we have been reminded of by #allaboutthatplace is:
    1. In your research expand from your family to where they lived, worked, played and worshipped.
    2. As 'family' historians we still need to collaborate more.

  33. @GenealogRebecca Hi Rebecca! Rest assured, the AH team is exploring options at the moment. Once we find a suitable solution which allows us to run AH as a team (believe me, there's a lot that happens behind-the-scenes to keep each live hour going!) we'll be letting everyone know.

    So please do watch this space, and in the meantime do keep tweeting your #FamilyHistory thoughts/qus with the #AncestryHour hashtag. We're looking forward to bringing the live hour back as soon as it's workable 👍
