Discover Your Ancestors
Issue 038
Welcome to the June issue of your monthly mix of family and social history, Discover Your Ancestors Periodical.
What could be better than a good story? Many of us find them in the course of exploring our own families. In writer Jocelyn Robson’s case, she came across one which she just had to pursue – read her fascinating account of a woman who faked her own death as well as helping to advance girls’ education in this issue. And there’s plenty more to explore, from shipwrecks to fascinating trades in Northern England.
Meanwhile, if you haven’t got your copy of issue 5 of our printed edition, packed with more than 30 new articles and some fantastic data offers, do look out for it in your newsagent or buy it online at discoveryourancestors.co.uk.
Enjoy this issue, and thanks for reading. Andrew Chapman, Editor.
