You would get better participation by adding during the day (UK time)

Hi,

No I'm not doing a year in America.
I tend to be able to work better during the night, as there are less distractions than during the day.

Thank you for taking part in my research!

Odd that this should be added in the middle of the night - you must be doing a year in the States or something.

Hello,

My name is Corinne Gillespie and I am currently studying at The University of Derby, Buxton. I am studying BA Travel and Tourism. This semester I am studying a module called Research Methods and I have decided to conduct research into genealogy and tourism.

My question that I am asking is:
Are genealogists classed as tourists when travelling to conduct research?

I have decided to carry out research into this topic as for a year now I have been studying my own family tree which I find fascinating.

I was wondering if you would be able to complete a survey about genealogical tourism please? The survey is very short and will not take up much of your time. This will help towards my primary research and my portfolio. The link to the survey is:

I am interested in the views of professional genealogists and people who research their family tree as a hobby.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Regards,
Corinne Gillespie
