At WDYTYA Live it was a pleasure to record an interview with Debra Chatfield, marketing manager for findmypast.co.uk, about the recent and forthcoming databases at the site. If you're tempted to try a subscription the new issue of Peter Calver's Lost Cousins Newsletter contains an attractive offer for new subscribers as well as the usual helping of good reading.
Toward the end of the interview Debra spoke about a great uncle, Sidney Towell, who was a home child, moving in 1910 from Sussex, where he was in a Shaftesbury Home, to Canada. He served in WW1 and eventually became successful in the US movie business.
