Aprašymas

Once you have traced your British ancestors through the censuses and civil registration records of the nineteenth century and reached the beginning of the Victorian era, where do you go next?

Researching earlier generations can seem daunting, but the growth of online resources has opened up a vast range of material for the family historian. Parish registers, church and court records, printed histories, lists of landholders and many other sources now provide valuable clues to lives lived long before the introduction of civil registration in 1837. Yet the sheer number of resources available online can also make it difficult to know where to begin.

Tracing Your 1066-1837 Ancestors on the Internet is a practical guide to key digital sources. Organised by subject, it explains what records exist, where they can be found online, and how they can be used effectively in genealogical research. The book also highlights the differences between major genealogical websites and specialist collections, showing which resources are freely available and which require subscription.

Whether you are new to family history or an experienced researcher seeking to push your family tree further back in time, this book will help you discover sources you may not have considered and provide the guidance needed to uncover otherwise elusive ancestors.
