Episode #16 with guest Fiona Brooker. Fiona is a dedicated genealogist whose passion was kindled by a school project and deepened by family stories and historical documents tracing back to the 1800s. Fascinated not just by the lineage but the rich narratives behind each ancestor, Fiona has explored genealogy through traditional archives and modern technologies like DNA and AI. Transitioning from accounting to teaching, she now shares her expertise with adults, continually advancing her skills with studies in genealogy and Geographic Information Systems. Fiona's journey from discovering her granddad's migration to New Zealand to teaching genealogy encapsulates her lifelong commitment to connecting with the past and educating others.
