Congratulations to Peter Calver's Lost Cousins website (www.lostcousins.com) which now has 100,000 members. The site allows you to make connections with relatives through shared connections via various British, Irish, Canadian and US censuses.
The latest newsletter from the site is available at http://lostcousins.com/newsletters2/oct15news.htm - amongst the latest news is an announcement that the site's Genealogy in the Sunshine event, hosted in Portugal's Algrave in both 2014 and 2015, is skipping a year next year, and will be back in 2017.
(With thanks to Peter Calver)
