News - Apologies but I have temporarily disabled the 'Contact Me' form. I have been getting too many automated spam posts to it.
Update - I tried re-activating the contact form in November 2022, but I immediately received 40+ junk messages a day. Please Email me any questions/info.

News - I have another part of this site (Family History Village). There is more info there, including my searchable databases (approval for a login is required), my genealogy study notes, and other miscellaneous stuff. Have a look if interested . . .

News - You may be interested that Anne and myself were on an episode of 'Insight' on SBS, on 25 June 2024. If you are interested, you can watch the show from their website here (Australia only). Search for the 'Silver Splitter's' program.

Welcome - most people arrive here after searching for one of their ancestors. The link for 'First time users' might provide help if you need it. The search boxes (top left) are worth trying to see if we have common ancestors. The 'About me' page might help explain other life connections we may have. I live in Adelaide Australia, and my web hosting is in the U.S.

This web site contains around fifty years of research and information accumulation, and celebrates thirty years of my web presence. You are free to use my information (with acknowledgement please). Only limited details of living people are available. If a source transcript or citation is listed, then I have personally looked at the source record or the index. Some of my information has been gathered and validated by others, and while I have confidence in the researcher, I have not checked all the data.

I welcome questions, comments or corrections about my research, content, or on any privacy issue. You can Email me at jan@jansquire.com. I try to reply within 24 hours, so if you do not get a reply, please check in your junk Email folders, and check that you sent me the correct Email address.
