Thinking about researching your family history? We have a subscription to Ancestry.com, the popular family history website, with FREE access to census, birth, marriage and death records. The Archives also provide access to printed and microfiche copies of local parish registers. Why not come and explore your history...
Once you’ve worked out the basic details of your family history, you’ll want to start finding out more details. Family History research is not just about ‘stamp collecting’ the names of your ancestors, it’s a chance to learn more about the world that they lived in.
Are you interested in family history but not sure where to start?
Or have you started looking into your family tree but are struggling with all the different sources available?
For details about our family history courses contact Archives Services on archives.services@vivacity-peterborough.com or call 01733 864160.
We often do checks of parish registers, census returns and local newspapers, as well as more extensive research using our collections.
