Polls

Unlock the Past conducts regular polls, each usually running from 2-4 weeks. Most of these are of wider general interest. Some will be a guide for our own planning. We welcome suggestions for further polls. Please submit ideas to alan@unlockpast.com.au. For past polls click here

Current Poll - closes 1 September 2010  

What types of history are you involved in?

Interest in history in one area usually leads to other related interests. Some of us may have started to research a school, church or town history to mark a centenary or other milestone, but then realised that families are involved, and further that we each have a family history we had thought little of beforehand.

A further interest may be sparked in others with the same name, perhaps leading to a global one name study. Our own families, or a town may have been prominent in a particular industry, e.g. flour milling, confectionery or mining, leading to a study of that particular industry.

With this poll we would like to know what areas of study you are involved in.
