Designed for beginners and those with some experience, these four courses build up a fundamental understanding of palaeography. Each course is stand-alone, but the four will also work together to reinforce existing and new knowledge, together with an understanding of the most common documents used in local and family history.
Palaeography level 3 - Intermediate palaeography [3rd session of 4; or standalone]
This course offers extra practice and brushing up skills. We will also look at ways to understand Latin documents when you don’t have any Latin.
