Tracing Your Channel Islands Ancestors is an expert introduction
for the family historian to the wealth of material available to
researchers in libraries and archives in Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney
and Sark. Full information is given on how to access the civil
birth, marriage and death records which are only available in the
islands and differ in format from those in England and Wales.
Marie-Louise Backhurst covers the census, church records,
nonconformist registers, rating lists, newspapers, wills and
inheritance, official records, and the variety of other sources
that can illuminate a past life and make family history research so
rewarding. Migration has played a large part in the history of the
islands and details of the records are fully explained. This
authoritative and easy-to-use guide to these collections, and the
author's advice on how to use them and get the most out of them,
will be invaluable to anyone who is trying to find out about the
life and experience of an ancestor who lived in the Channel Islands
or was connected with them. This book will equally be essential
reading and reference for anyone who wants to explore the history
of the Channel Islands.
