It’s well overdue – a blog showing the entries added to the Geelong and District Database – especially as the last one was back in December 2014! That doesn’t mean that I haven’t been adding lots of entries – I just haven’t done a blog on the additions.
Since the last major update last December, there are now 1,646,239 entries in the Geelong and District Database. Latest additions include:
- Surnames of Interest entries – 18 new entries [1,143 submitters in total]
