Many newsletter readers will recognize Jeanne Bunting’s name. She is an expert British genealogist, writer, and lecturer. She perhaps is best known for all her efforts for the Society of Genealogists in London. She has been one of the principal organizers of the Society’s annual Family History Fair and a frequent lecturer at those conferences. This year she and John Hanson ran the Computer Help Section of the Family History Fair and also gave lectures. I also see Jeanne Bunting’s name listed frequently as a lecturer at other conferences around England.

Jeanne Bunting frequently writes for several British genealogy publications and websites. One of my favorites is her article for beginners, entitled "What Is Genealogy?" which is available on GENUKI’s site at www.genuki.org.uk/gs/Bunting.html. CompuServe members know Jeanne’s work from her participation on CompuServe’s Genealogy Forums. She is also very active on GENUKI and several other mailing lists.

Jeanne’s friends and admirers will be pleased to hear that she was named as a Fellow of the Society of Genealogists at the Society’s annual general meeting last week. Please join me in congratulating her for this richly deserved reward.
