"Tower Bridge, on the Thames River"
Course Description
Finding
your ancestors in England is often difficult if they arrived in the
United States before 1840. This course is not only designed to help you
locate your ancestors in England, but to also become familiar with the
different records that available once you locate your family within a
particular county or 'shire'. We will learn to read records and do
research in them from the late 1800's all the way back to the early 6th
century and learn how the history of England affected the people who
inhabited it.
Also, please be aware that
source links are often given to GENUKI materials and then the material
quoted as well. This is not intended to circumvent any copyright laws
and is only done so that students who print the lessons for their own
personal research use have all the material available at once. However,
students are strongly encouraged to follow the links as there is often
much more material available which is not included.
There
is no grade given as this is a special interest course and is a
non-credit course. This course can be taken free and is open to the
public.
