I've just received the latest Who Do You Think You Are? magazine edition, issue 213, January 2024, which includes an "Around Britain" series article by yours truly on Northern Ireland research and PRONI, the country's national archive (don't worry, I've addressed the geographical elephant in the room in the opening paragraph!).
Another interesting article, for Scots research, is that by Rosemary Collins, who talks to Loraine Duncan and Rhona Barr about their Friends of Hartwood Paupers Cemetery project at https://www.fohpc.com, focussed on the stories of those who were buried in the graveyard at Hartwood Hospital (Lanark District Asylum) near Shotts in Lanarkshire.
Also in the magazine are articles on 50 website to watch next year, finding trade union membership records, and Metropolitan Police records.
