Family history archive

There is nothing quite like holding history in your hand. Family history, beyond the living memory of the present generation, relies on records, mostly printed. In addition more recent family history has the benefit of photographic records, of our ancestors, and the society they lived in. We will be sharing a lot of the archive material we hold and hope that it enriches your study of family history and social history.

There is a vast resource of family history records and information in the form of postcards, newspapers, military records (i.e. Boer War, First World War, Second World War), books (including Family Bibles). As we develop this section of our website we will produce blogs, news stories, and many links to valuable family history artefacts and printed material.
