4.0 out of 5 stars Clear and useful, 11 April 2001
By A Customer
This is a very clear guide to problems associated with tracing your family history in England and Wales. It is particularly oriented to solving problems that you might face. I am an absolute beginner who knows nothing about tracing your family tree, and I found it a little difficult going at times. I think I might need a suitable beginner's book first. However, once you've started and know a bit about what you're doing, and start to hit the first problem, I think this book will be invaluable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb book for anyone starting to research their family, 29 Dec 2000
By Mrs. M. Maybury (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a newcomer to family research I have found this book invaluable. It describes in detail the different ways of locating birth, marriage and death records before and after the introduction of civil registration in 1837. It contains very useful information about social trends and gives examples. This book is well written and very easy to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Family Tree Detective, 28 Jun 2009
I have recently bought this book and have just begun reading it. If anyone is interested in tracing their ancestors I would certainly recomend it to them as it contains much information and many answers to questions as to how to go about it.
