Genealogy! Where it all begins! Starting your family tree could never be any easier.
Wills in genealogy are a great resource in discovering more about your family roots.
I am sure many of you have your wills done but if you don’t I would highly recommend that you do.
Researching your family tree is an ongoing saga for your personal journey and there may be a time where you will come across one for one of your ancestors. Coming across one of your 3rd or 4th great grandfather or grandmother’s ‘last will and testament’ may lead you with more discoveries.
From my previous blog post on ‘The National Archives’, I referenced and recommended the audio about ‘Introduction to birth, marriages and death registers in England and Wales (11 min 33 sec)’. I would like to provide you with an overview for the audio.
If you’re researching ancestors from the UK as I am then the audio above is one you should listen to from The National Archives.
Genealogy research involves tracing one’s family tree back through history to discover ancestors and learn about their lives. One of the most important tools for genealogists is vital records, which are official documents that document significant life events such as births, marriages, and deaths. By accessing these records, researchers can gather essential information to help them fill out their family trees and connect with their ancestors. In this article, we will explore where to find and how to access vital records for birth, marriage, death, and cemetery records. Whether you are just starting your genealogy journey or have been researching for years, this guide will provide you with valuable information and resources to help you discover your family history.
