S&N Genealogy Supplies: 20th Anniversary

S&N Genealogy Supplies: 20th AnniversaryThis year marks our 20th anniversary. Back when there was only one genealogy magazine and computers were so niche that they only got mentioned on the odd page or too, S&N started out.

"In 1992 no-one sold Windows-based software or data CDs. I had written my family history on a BBC computer and needed to transfer it onto a PC with Windows software."
