520 Family history should reveal more than facts and dates,
lists of names and places – it should bring
ancestors alive in the context of their times and the
surroundings they knew – and research into local
history records is one of the most rewarding ways of
gaining this kind of insight into their world. That is why
Jonathan Oates’s detailed introduction to these
records is such a useful tool for anyone who is trying to
piece together a portrait of family members from the past.
In a series of concise and informative chapters he looks
at the origins and importance of local history from the
sixteenth century onwards and at the principal archives &
ndash; national and local, those kept by government,
councils, boroughs, museums, parishes, schools and clubs.
He also explains how books, photographs and other
illustrations, newspapers, maps, directories, and a range
of other resources can be accessed and interpreted and how
they can help to fill a gap in your knowledge. As well as
describing how these records were compiled, he highlights
their limitations and the possible pitfalls of using them,
and he suggests how they can be combined to build up a
picture of an individual, a family and the place and time
in which they lived. [Elib]
