In this issue I go where angels fear to tread by comparing the major census platforms for England, Scotland and Wales - which are the best to use, and what are their strengths and weaknesses? Undoubtedly everyone has their favourites, and it will be interesting to see if you agree with my conclusions!
Also in this issue is a great article from the University of Strathlcyde's Ali Macdonald and Graham Horton, explaining the university's project to trace descendants of the signatories of the Declaration of Arbroath using DNA. Additional articles look at Scottish fisher girls, the Blitz, ancestors at work, the American gold rush, and more.
