The School of Family History

Time for family history!

Wednesday 20th September 2023

The weather has had a significant shift towards Autumn this week, with rain and wind over much over the country. As the evenings draw in, now is the time to dig out your research and get stuck into family history once again. Alternatively, darker evenings may give you a chance to catch up on the various genealogy based television and radio shows out there currently.

As well as re-runs of the BBC's Who Do You Think You Are, there is a proliferation of other genealogy based shows available at the moment - including BBC 3's Stranger In My Family and the BBC Sounds podcast The Gift , about those who have received a DNA test as a gift, and what unexpected stories they have subsequently discovered. Alternatively, Channel 4's long running series Long Lost Family has recently completed its 13th series, which is also available on catchup online.

If you have any enquiries at all about tracing your own family history, contact us today to find out how our team of professional genealogists can help.
