Discover Your Ancestors
Issue 036
Welcome to the April issue of Discover Your Ancestors Periodical, full of the usual variety of family and social history articles.
In this issue we have an interesting exploration of the Royal Naval Division, which is often neglected in military history; and on the military theme, a unique case study from prisoner of war records which went online only recently. Plus we follow several generations of a Derbyshire family who worked on the railways – even before the railways were built! And on a darker note, we look at how society treated suicide in the past.
Meanwhile, do check your newsagent for Issue 5 of our annual printed ‘bookazine’, Discover Your Ancestors. This brand new publication is packed with more than 30 new articles – not to mention a free cover DVD crammed with offers worth more than £150! It is also now available at our website, discoveryourancestors.co.uk, and you can pick up your copy at the Who Do You Think You Are? Live show at Birmingham from 7-9 April – do come and see us at our stand there.
Enjoy the issue! Andrew Chapman, Editor.
