This week we've got something a little different for you! This episode was recorded live at RootsTech London - an event dedicated to discovering family histories - on Saturday 26th October. The audio is a little different in this episode and unfortunately due to a technical issue on stage we were unable to record Michala's story and the usual 'News In Brief' stories. We're really sorry about that but hope you enjoy the episode nonetheless; we had a ball recording live in front of an audience!

So in this episode, Brad shares "an occurence of extraordinary character" on an Irish mail train, and we have a Q&A with the audience at the show. Michala does give us a taste of her story (before the tech error), but not to worry listeners, she'll be telling the full story in a future episode of the pod!

All newspaper articles referenced in this episode were sourced on Newspapers.com, with additional research conducted by Brad and Michala using Ancestry and other resources.
