Breaking Down Ancestral Brick Walls with David Cufley

Wednesday 9th October 2024, 19:30-21:30
Zoom Online
A North West Kent FHS Event.

A discussion workshop to help you overcome research hurdles.

(Please submit your Brick Wall by 25 September to David Cufley via https://www.nwkfhs.org.uk/?location=1#Contact)

Even if you don't have a research problem you wish to bring to the group, you may find it interesting to participate and hear how such problems can be tackled.

Brick walls are not a hurdle but a learning experience. At a 'Breaking down ancestral brick walls' workshop a member said that she thought you had to submit a research problem to attend. Not so. The workshops are designed to explain sources and how you can organise your research to help find that elusive ancestor.

Other members' 'brick walls' can be of help to other family historians as the thinking process explained with the sources used can apply to everyone’s research.

Methods are supported by the guides and bibliographies in the Society's website members only area (MOA) along with the recordings.

Don't forget that the advice can help everyone. So come and hear how we try to solve the 'brick walls' that other members have encountered.

Having the chance to discuss the research problems we all encounter may help you solve your 'brick wall'.

Please log in to the Zoom link from 7.15pm and enjoy chat amongst participants before the discussion starts.
