Your Ancestors In The Newspapers

Richard Heaton’s talk will provide an overview of the principal historic newspapers and periodical websites which could help you research your UK and Irish ancestors, followed by examples of what you are likely to find and why. He'll also look at some rare and forgotten newspaper titles, including examples of where to search for certain occupations and sporting ancestors.
Richard's coverage will extend to sites beyond these shores, and will include a look at common pitfalls and what you can do to think your way around them.
