September has brought us more fascinating episodes of the ever-popular Who Do You Think You Are?, a series that continues to captivate genealogy enthusiasts across the UK. This season, the family histories of celebrities like Vicky McClure, Paddy McGuinness, Melanie Chisholm, and Rose Ayling-Ellis have been thoroughly explored, uncovering a wide variety of stories from their ancestors' lives.
Now in its 20th year, Who Do You Think You Are? remains an unmissable show for anyone with an interest in professional family history research. Each episode showcases the power of genealogy to connect individuals with their past, making it a compelling watch for both amateur and professional genealogists alike.
The latest episode focused on the fascinating heritage of Rose Ayling-Ellis, tracing her family roots from Birmingham to Devon, and even uncovering Italian ancestry. One of the experts featured was Lucy Browne, a professional genealogist and heraldry researcher who is also an IHGS tutor. It was exciting to see Lucy, with her deep knowledge of genealogical research, sharing insights from her home city of Exeter.
