Hi Sarah I'm in my 30's now, but got interested in family history when I was 17. Used to go to the records office with my dad and have loved it ever since!! Jayne

I fianlly plucked up the courage and went along to my local family history society last night (go me!). I decided to join, but was very sad to see that I seemed to be the only person under 40 in the room :( Does no one else think it sad that not many young people seem to be interested in the subject? I've been to various local libraries across the country to do lookups and often feel I'm the only one of my age there too. Am I going mad?
