Scaysbrook in Epub

 I have been playing with the idea of an Epub book, or electronic book, and thought that the Scaysbrook web site and all that's in it, might be a suitable trial. So I have started to copy off of the site into an Apple Pages document ready to export to an Epub document.

The benefits are that I can read the book on my iPhone without having to link to a web page, great for travelling.

Also I want to start adding new items, on the very early days of out name, the Sacrsbrtooks, Sacrisbroooks and Sacribricks. Plus the link to the USA is well worth a bit of research, I already have links conformed to my mother.

Next comes the tree itself, Its huge and I want to make it easier to read, so I am experimenting with splitting it into continents, the European, Australasia and finally the USA.

So the Epub book will be free, and available to download via the Website and from the Scaysbrook site on Facebook.

The Australian Scaysbrook Facebook website page

Facebook page Scasysbrook in Australia
 I have recently signed back up to Facebook, I cancelled my subscription a few years back, simply because of the antics of Facebook, trying to manipulate the way the world sees things. But, there is always a but, I lost contact with Australia, and the Scaysbrooks down there. So I signed back in and linked back to the family.

The Scaysbrook page is very specific, in the people and history for Australia, that means Michael Scaysbrook and the vast list of decedents, located in and around Sydney. I shall be, I hope travelling down to Sydney in 2023, so another reason to make contact.

On this website, I have listed a lot of the news I found on the trial and transportation of Michael, his marriage and family, his son also called Michael, married and had 17 children, hence to explosion of Scaysbrooks, all I might add did reasonably well from a convict.

There is a reasonably large number of what is commonly called the £10 poms, those recent migrants who saw a better life down under. 

But back to the Scaysbrook Facebook page, I strongly suggest if your a Scaysbrook living out there, or are a UK scaysbrook, with family out there take the plunge and sign up, and follow the chat.

The site here has been stagnant for a few years, so this addition of the Scaysbrook blog is the first of many new additions I am planning.

I recently made a change to Google sites, it mades operating the site so easy, so changes will come.

Till then have fun, its spring here in the UK, Autumn in Australia. so have fun where ever you are.
