Preview:Even as a very young child I wondered who my ancestors were as I'd never come across our family name of WOODSELL before. All I knew at this point was that my father's father had been born at Maidstone, so aged 20 and in pre-internet days I attended an evening course in tracing your family history. Armed with new found knowledge, I headed excitedly for the BMD Indexes that were then held at the PRO - St. Catherine's House. This was in 1980 well before the explosion in interest and 'Family Tree Magazine' was the only specialist magazine in existence.
