Well, here we are, January already! The year feels full of possibilities and it’s a great time to take stock of what’s truly important and how you can work towards filling your cup more often in the months ahead.
For history buffs, planning a family history holiday is one of the most rewarding journeys you could ever take. Precious time with loved ones away from the daily grind in a destination that has real meaning for your ancestral trail creates treasured memories and may even help to strengthen some ancient branches on your family tree.
At Family History Holidays, we do the hard work for you, connecting you with local genealogists and historians who can reveal relevant places of interest. These could include historic houses, churches, schools and meeting places.
Whether you’re an independent traveller who prefers to go it alone, or you prefer to work with a travel consultant who can pull it all together for you, we’ve got you covered. From the wine regions of Tasmania to the UK, Europe, Asia and everywhere in between, we’ve got the travel know-how and genealogy contacts to create a phenomenal itinerary.
Perhaps you have a burning curiosity about a particular long-lost relative. With just some basic information about their place of residence and occupation, we can help you discover more about them. From politicians to farmers, we’ll get you connected to the right family history tools and help you discover where and how these colourful characters lived.
Begin 2023 with a plan to honour your loved ones and your own life by digging deeper into your family history. Plan a holiday back to where it all began and spend time reflecting on all that your ancestors have accomplished, laying the groundwork for where you are today.
The information that you discover and record will be passed down to all the members of your family tree, adding shape and significance to every branch.
