Context
Researching a family history is more than collecting names and dates relating to ancestors. It involves:
- Exploring sources for information about a family
- Exploring the historical and social context in which the family lived
- Analysing the collected information to build a picture of the family's history.
This section features various articles that look at the historical and social aspects that may have affected my ancestor's lives in one way or another.
Reference
There are many historical record collections available providing information about our ancestors. This section lists collections I use, together with background information useful in understanding these collections.
Miscellaneous
This final section covers areas indirectly related to family history research that do not comfortably fit into any other category.
