Amateur historians can find out how to use electoral registers and trade directories to trace their family tree at a talk this month.
The session is part of Durham County Record Office’s Branching Out programme, where people can pick up tips and advice on unearthing information about their ancestors.
This month’s talk takes place twice – on Tuesday, 13 June from 6pm to 8pm, and on Thursday, 15 June, from 10am to noon.
Costing £10 per person, the sessions are aimed at people who have already begun tracing their family tree or who have attended one of the Record Office’s beginners’ courses.
