May 3, 2023Joe works as a freelance historian, is an Associate of AGRA (the Association of Genealogists and Researchers in Archives) and host of the Family History Federation's Really Useful Podcast. He teaches history for Pharos Tutors and the University of York. He is also a part-time PhD student researching a trade community in seventeenth century England and is a Trustee of the British Association for Local History.
Local history is invaluable to family history. It provides us with the context to understand our ancestors' lives, adding a richness to our family trees while also enabling us to better find and understand them within the records. This talk outlines the value of local history to family historians, many of whom are already local historians in many senses. It also provides an introduction to local history for those just starting or looking to develop their exploration. While considering England broadly it will contain Hampshire-specific information.
