As anticipated, my November 2022 article on ethics within family history, ‘To Tell or Not to Tell’, comprehensively stirred up Family Tree readers. The strength of opinion confirmed how important, controversial and divisive this topic is; I was a little overwhelmed by the strength of some readers’ negative outlook. In part 1 we discussed the topic of whether to publish an account of a domestic murder that happened in the 1950s – atrue story that I had encountered in the course of my research. We invited readers to let us know their views.
