Our group supports beginners who may need help getting started in researching their family history. This involves reconstructing past generations through birth/marriage/death certificates, census data, to build their family trees.  You will learn how to use key resources within a friendly group which includes the use of internet facilities such as Ancestry, primary sources like vital records, census records, passenger lists, and military  documents. It is usual to start with known information and work backwards. All welcome!!
