About the Speaker
Mark Bayley
Working as the head of online development for TheGenealogist and also as a Director of S&N British Data Archive, Mark has been involved in many aspects of genealogy and the family business from an early age. During his time at university, Mark followed a passion for technology, studying Computer Science. A combination of interests in web design, social networks and genealogy led him to develop TreeView for his dissertation. http://treeview.co.uk/ is a free online family tree builder that lets you record, display, chart, import, export and share genealogical information. Mark graduated with a first-class honours degree and joined the company full time. Mark doesn’t just develop new genealogical research tools. At evenings and weekends, he can be found giving talks on breaking down brick walls using these tools along with alternative record sets at events across the country.
