This is where chancery records come into their own. The best place to learn about your ancestors’ lives, characters and feuds.

Great webinar, caught up with it today. Very helpful Zooniverse tutorial for transcribers. Excellent to learn more about your research aims. Through this project, 25,000 transcribed wills from TNA, dated c.1540-1790, will ultimately be available to everyone online!

Chancery, Chancery, Chancery! If the records for this wonderful source seem daunting, my guide book can help. The more people who enjoy the wonderful personal detail to be found in these records at the UK National Archives the better
