Want to research the history of your family or house but don’t know where to start? This beginner’s session will get you on track, for free!This beginner’s session consists of a half-hour talk to introduce the basics of family and house history followed by optional half-hour bookable one-to-one sessions. There will be a morning and afternoon session, with the same talk being repeated at 10:30am and 1:00pm.
Your research journey doesn’t need to start with expensive subscriptions to family history websites or magazines. Many of the archives and guides you will need are available for free – you just need to know where to look.
The talk will cover archive maps, the UK Censuses, the 1939 Register, birth, death and marriage records, parish registers, newspaper articles, electoral registers, etc. It will also signpost you to other resources so that you can continue your journey on your own.
Although the talk is aimed at beginners, it might also provide a useful refresher for those who have taken a break from their research journey.
All participants will be provided with a booklet containing details of all the archives mentioned during the talk.
