Sheena
Tait was born in Scotland of Scottish parents but has lived in England
for almost twenty years. She has had a range of careers. After completing
her training she worked in the catering industry for five years. She
then joined the civil service, initially helping to run mainframe computers
and PCs and then going on to manage various large computer systems and
networks. She also spent three years as a management trainer running
courses for other civil servants.
Sheena
didn't catch the genealogy bug until after she moved to England and
has been researching her own family for the last fifteen years. Surrounded
by, and learning, the English record keeping systems she had to learn
how to research at a distance and understand the Scottish systems as
most of her ancestors are Scottish.
She then
decided to combine her love of family history and the analytical skills
developed through her work to start a new career as a genealogist. As
well as carrying out private research Sheena is a regular contributor
to the British-based 'Practical Family History' and 'Family Tree' magazines
and is also one of the resident "agony aunts" for 'Family
Tree' magazine.
