This simple record book is designed to keep a record of your family history research progress, and to highlight any gaps. It is not intended to be a complete family history record. Think of it as an index, or table of contents, to summarise your existing knowledge and guide you as you undertake further research. It is ideal to give to family members, to use as a recording tool for family history clubs, or to take on field trips.

The book is an excellent way to collate the information in your paper or online records. It complements, but does not replace, the use of a specialist genealogy website such as Ancestry, Find My Past, My Heritage or Family Search, or genealogy software on your computer such as Family Historian, Heredis, Family Tree Maker, Legacy Family Tree, or Roots Magic.

The book concentrates on recording your 62 direct ancestors, in other words a six generation pedigree, so you can build a picture of your genetic heritage - who you are and where you came from. Traditionally pedigrees only contain your bloodline (not step parents, adopted parents, or same sex parents), so do be sure to make it very clear in the Family Notes section if you have used a different structure. The double page spreads are arranged as family groups. These include yourself and your 62 direct ancestors in detail, with space to show all their children in summary (your siblings, aunts and uncles, great aunts and uncles, etc.).

Each person has been given an ahnentafel number. This numbering system is very commonly used in genealogy, and is a great way to file, tag, or order your photographs and records. You (or your research subject) are the root person - number 1. Your parents are numbers 2 and 3, and your grandparents are numbers 4, 5, 6, and 7, etc.. There is a key to ahnentafel numbering at the beginning of the book to help you. We recommend that you use pencil when you start filling in the record book. You can ink over your findings when you have documentary proof for them.

At the foot of each page there are check boxes which you can tick when you have obtained and filed the key evidence:

Описание:

Wootton Bassett One Hundred Years Ago is the ultimate guide to the history of the town and its surrounding countryside during the post-Edwardian era. The series comprises three volumes: 'The Great War', 'The Town', and 'The Country', which together form a much extended and improved successor to Sheridan's previous book, Wootton Bassett in the Great War (2014).

This volume is part one: 'The Great War'. It begins with a Roll of Honour for the fallen heroes of Wootton Bassett, Hook, Lydiard Tregoze, Tockenham, and Brinkworth. It tells the story of the area throughout the war years, with reference to local regiments, recruitment, nursing, volunteer activity, employment, German prisoners of war, Belgian refugees, remembrance, war memorials, and much more. Finally a useful appendix and last names index acts as a resource for the subsequent books in the series.

The author, Sheridan Parsons, is a professional local and family historian. She has a Postgraduate Diploma in Local and Family History and she is a member of the Register of Qualified Genealogists, the Society for One-Place Studies, and the Family and Community Historical Research Society.
