Product Description

Product Description

An accessible, modern guide to the hugely popular art of tracing your family tree, Grow Your Own Family Tree offers a concise and comprehensive summary of how to locate and use a range of records and information to track down your own family history. There is information on everything from where to find census information or order a birth certificate, to finding out whether your great-great-uncle committed a disciplinary offence whilst in the army. And unlike other books on the subject, the scope of Grow Your Own Family Tree extends far beyond Britain, to track your migrating relatives.

In twenty-nine clear and helpful chapters, Alan Stewart takes you through every aspect of researching your family history and tells stories about the memorable discoveries that ordinary people have made in their own searches. As an expert on the internet, he also offers a detailed exploration of the very best websites and current Internet resources along the way. With this book to hand, it has never been easier to find out more about our ancestors.

About the Author

A keen researcher of family history for the last twenty-five years, Alan Stewart writes a monthly column for Practical Family History and for other family history magazines (Family History Monthly and Ancestors, Family Chronicle, Internet Genealogy and Everton’s Genealogical Helper). He has also written for the Financial Times, The Times, Independent and the Encyclopaedia Britannica. He was consultant editor of the fourth edition of the Hutchinson Dictionary of Computing & the Internet and his other books are How to Make it in IT and Gathering the Clans: Tracing Scottish Ancestry on the Internet.

This was a christmas gift for my brother who is researching our family history. Having spoken to him since, he says that it has been very useful and easy to understand.

For those delving into their ancestry, this book is a useful addition. Well written by an expert in the subject, it takes the reader through all you need to consider in researching you family. The book is not intended to take the reader through a lot of internet sites like some books do. However, it can be of considerable help in knowing where to look for that elusive ancester.

I initially borrowed this book from the public library, but found it so helpful I decided to purchase my own copy. It is written clearly and great to use as a reference book.
