This blog records the family tree of Kieran Edward Bignell as it is being researched. Kieran is my son, born in February 2007, and this research in part is a legacy for him. But other families, as they reconstruct their family heritage, also may find information here useful. The blog will be frequently updated; in addition, as new information becomes available about previously entered family members, notes indicating the addition of new data to previous entries will be made.
