Family History: Introduction to Family History at Rosny Library

Have you always wondered about your origins and how to get started on your family tree? Our resident expert, Sue will get you started.

Perhaps you received a DNA test from Christmas or your grandchildren are asking questions about your life as a child?

This session will involve planning your family history journey: where to find information at home, how to organise the information you find and where you can go to next. We will share a PowerPoint for about half an hours, then it will be time for Q&A and some practical activities.
