The Westbury Area Family History group will be holding an open day to help anyone interested in researching their family history.
The event will be held at Holy Trinity Church on Saturday 20th July from 10am to 4pm, as part of the Westbury Festival.
“We will provide help for anyone interested in taking the first steps in tracing their family history or assist those who have already started tracing their family members and family history and would like some more help,” said Lynne Vercoe from the group.
“Bring along everything you know about your family, focusing on names, dates of birth, marriage and death, and places they may have lived, and get practical advice on how to continue your research,” said Lynne. “Members of the Westbury Area Family History group will be on hand to help with the research and access to some of the online genealogy sites.”
The group will also be offering assistance on continuing research at their monthly meeting on Thursday 25th July at their usual venue – the foyer of Westbury Methodist Church on Station Road. The meeting starts at 7.30pm and non-members are welcome.
