Tutorial - The Professions

The Professions

Records relating to the clergy, the legal profession and the medical profession can provide valuable information about an ancestor in one of these three learned professions. The talk will consider the records available for ancestors who may have worked in one of these professions, the value of the information contained in them and where these records can be found. The talk will conclude with three case studies looking at the variety of records available for each of the three professions and highlight how much the records can tell us about an ancestor’s career.
