The Family Tree Detective

Description

By Colin D Rodgers

Welcomed worldwide on its first publication, this user-friendly, lively guide for the amateur genealogist has now been fully revised and updated, including changes to  the location and cost of civil registration sources. Some previous sections, such as military and poor law records, have been expanded, and there are new introductions to medieval sources, the place of heraldry in genealogy, the internet, and a substantial bibliography for those who discover that any of their ancestors cams from outside England and Wales.

A problem-solving manual, The Family Tree Detective goes beyond a simple how-to-do-guide and explains what to do when the usual methods fail. It is especially useful for those without easy access to London’s vast resources of genealogical information.
