I started my family research about 6 months ago and if someone had produced a web site like yours for the Essex/Suffolk area they would have earnt my undying gratitude.
I tend to agree with you about the colours, it doesn't really matter to the serious researcher. You've clearly spent many happy hours in local record offices!
I can see where you're going with your timelines but the one thing I don't see anywhere on the site is your actual family tree (unless I've missed it somehow). Which software do you use to actually record your data and display your tree?

Do you know that we're all in line for succession to the throne? Really?
Well, if forty-eight million, two hundred thousand, seven hundred and one people died I'd be Queen.
