![]() ![]() Genealogy & History Resources BOOK - Tracing Your Ancestors Using the Census (UK), A Guide For Family Historians By Emma Jolly Published by Pen and Sword Books, S. Yorkshire, UK, 2013
![]() Emma Jolly describes how and why census records came to be created, then looks in detail at how to search the main censuses from 1841 to 1911. Each chapter covers the relevant historical context, compares online and other sources, identifies problems like lost or damaged records, and shows how the specific information in the census concerned can be interpreted effectively. While the censuses of England and Wales, Scotland, Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are all examined, the main focus is on the English and Welsh census, with differences noted for other areas. An extensive appendix and bibliography, which, for ease of access, gathers together all the key resources in one place, is also provided. About the author:
Women often did more in wars than is popularly assumed. My book is intended to explore women's roles in the past and even if your ancestor did not serve officially, there were other areas in which she may have worked. During war, women worked in the roles left by men who had entered the armed forces; these roles include working in mines, on farms, in factories, in transport, in civil defence and at home, These women made an invaluable contribution to the war effort". 6 X 9.25" Index Softcover - perfectbound ISBN: 9781781590614 Published by Pen and Sword Books, S. Yorkshire, UK, 2 September 2013 More resources from GlobalGenealogy.com:
