McLaughlin, Eve Further Steps in Family History
Newbury Countryside Books 1990 1853060623 / 9781853060625 First Edition Pictorial Cover Very Good No Jacket
Some light marking to cover, front endpaper removed, else would be a near fine copy. 176pp, b&w illustrations. 215x150mm. 1853060623. 425g. 'Beginning research on your family history is at first fairly straightforward, made easier by the availability of national records & indexes back to the 1830s. But how do you proceed to track down ancestors before National Registration began in 1837? To help you make that seemingly bewildering step back into the more distant past Eve McLaughlin has written this clear guide; each stage is explained with simplicity, commonsense & humour. She leads you through the use of old parish records & wills in your quest for past generations. She explains where to look if your family were nonconformists such as Methodists & Quakers, 7 how to trace those for whom records may be scarce, immigrants & the illegitimate. There is also advice on reading old handwriting & a guide to the kind of simple Latin you may encounter. As the information you discover begins to mount up, she advises on the best way to lay out your family tree so it can be enjoyed by both present & future generations.'
