The Salmon Fishing on the Tweed Story-Telling Booth |
We were very busy (496 visitors) today, talking to people at Berwick Guildhall exhibition on Berwick's maritime connections, about their Berwick, Tweedmouth and Spittal connections, to people whose family lived on the Greenses, or live there now, people with salmon and herring fishing connections, their family stories, seeing if they are related to anyone on our massive Burgon family tree. Several details on the tree were updated, there and then, others said they would look at their family trees tonight and come in tomorrow (Sunday), others said they would email us.
Some people wrote a family story for us and others will email us a family story, another family story with lots of photos was handed to me and will go on the blog at some time.
The Salmon Fishing on the Tweed project were there with their story-telling booth - come and tell your story, tomorrow.
We had visitors from further afield too, from Bedford, Glasgow, Poland, Switzerland and Yorkshire.
