The new website is under construction but
here is the base from which we started
http://www.itsourfamily.co.uk

Building a new website: A few words from
Craig
I decided that the old website
www.itsourfamily.co.uk
is difficult and while full of features it can be difficult to navigate.
I have commissioned the original designer to come up with an alternative
site and one that is easy to navigate with trees that are easy to read
and download. Unfortunately this will take time but hopefully will be
completed by mid 2009. Meantime the site is still there and access to
the pages should now be clear of restrictions. adding photographs of family members at each
stage and the sound bites and videos for each family member as we come
into the latter part of the 20th century. Fortunately my father, Jack,
was a cine photographer and he took films of most of his family to Louis
and Leba (Rebecca) his parents to cousins and other relatives which is a
blessing for their families as well. What we may find is that other
family members took cine film , audio tape or videos as well as the
century progressed and we can add these in.

To summarise:
Yes its a lot of work but if someone does not do this when there are people
like myself to bring this together
then the information will once more be lost
in the mists of time. Now that we have children and some have grandchildren ,
I felt that spending the time and money doing this for the good of the
family
was a worthwhile venture. I hope that I am not wrong and that the family will
support the project by sending in photographs, information and links to what
we are all about..
You can also confirm to Philip and myself that we are doing the right
thing by telling us as no input is depressing.
Louis Coussins family: Features of the new site will be film of the family,
recordings of their voices, including Grandma Rebecca-Leba and Pappa-Louis -Libish, and
Jack and Sarah. The early musical recordings of Raymond will also be on the
site along with extracts from his later work.
