A practical approach to Chancery Records 

Chancery records are one of the most under used resources for family history. Part of their difficulty is in actually finding the records, as many remain uncatalogued in the The National Archives catalogue. With the records disbursed so that not all records for a case are held together, the aim of Sarah's talk is to demonstrate where to find and how to use finding aids to locate the various types of Chancery records

Sarah's talk will begin at 2pm with the formal business section of the AGM following shortly after 3pm
