DNA project to link people who share the same Staffordshire…

Posted: Published on November 17th, 2014

Society chairman Ian Bloor looks through a family tree. FAMILY historians are appealing for volunteers to join a DNA project aimed at linking the genealogical trees of people who share the same Staffordshire surname. The Blo(o)r(e) Society has already arranged for 27 men to be tested to see if their genetic signatures are a match. It has discovered at least three of them are related. Now society members hope more people linked to the various spellings of the Bloor name will undergo the simple swab test to shed further light on hundreds of years of history. Chairman Ian Bloor said: "We have 106 separate trees at the moment. But if we can get the DNA samples, we might be able to go down to 18 or 20 trees. "There are people who may have no idea they are related. It's a tremendously useful way of digging further back." The family trees covered by the initial DNA work have connections to Newcastle, Keele, Burslem, Trentham, Ipstones and Nantwich. Ian, who lives in Audlem, was the first to have his genetic make-up mapped, although he has yet to find a match. The results were sent off to a specialist company in the … Continue reading →

Chemistry Professor Alistair Wilkins awarded title

Posted: Published on November 17th, 2014

16 October 2014 Alistair Wilkins awarded title of Emeritus Professor University of Waikato chemistry Professor Alistair Wilkins has been made an Emeritus Professor, receiving the award at a function on October 15. After the Rena struck Astrolabe Reef in the Bay of Plenty, Professor Wilkins worked to accommodate the requests of the public, regional and central government stakeholders for information about the oil and other contaminants coming from the ship. His work in fingerprinting the oil was of prime importance to the Ministry for the Environment, Maritime New Zealand and the Bay of Plenty Regional Council, who were tasked with assessing liability and environmental impacts. Professor Wilkins reputation, energy and skills in analytical chemistry were of great importance in securing significant funding for the University to investigate the environmental effects after the grounding of the Rena, says University of Waikato Vice-Chancellor Professor Roy Crawford. He is extremely deserving of the title emeritus professor. Professor Wilkins academic qualifications include a Bachelor of Science (Hons) First Class in Chemistry from the University of Otago in 1968, and a PhD (Organic Chemistry/Natural Products) in 1972, also from Otago. He came to the University of Waikato in 1975 as a lecturer, and retired a … Continue reading →
