About Mortimer History
Hi! My name is David Mortimer. I enjoy learning about what life was like in the past, particularly for our ancestors. My interests include social history, architecture, historic monuments and genealogy. I am currently a paralegal.
Mortimer History is a blog about my medieval ancestors the Mortimers, alongside many other families. I am currently in the process of expanding my own family tree. See my ancestry profile or my WikiTree profile for details.
I plan on visiting many historic sites and blogging my discoveries. Read the blog section here.
