The wish to establish our roots is inherent in us all and it can be a very rewarding and exciting experience.
Your family name is your birthright; it is very personal and yet many people have no idea of how or why it is theirs.
Small families, a mobile population, the lost art of letter writing and other factors have combined to lessen the security and tradition of the family.
For these reasons there has been a tremendous growth of interest in family history and genealogy over the last fifteen years or so.
It is now recognised that it is part of our duty and our pride to hand on to future generations what may well become,
in the age of the microchip, computer and robot, the only personal records of our ancestry.
Census Searches Limited is a family history research service which has been formed by genealogists who have the knowledge and expertise gained from over twenty five years of working from records in this highly specialised field.
Where was your great-grandfather in the Industrial Revolution? Was he a veteran of the Napoleonic or Crimean wars or was he peacefully tilling the fields as generations of your family had done for centuries?
Craftsmen, tradesman, sailors, shopkeepers, miners, doctors, railwaymen and labourers, together with many others, all have a part to play in the rich tapestry of your family history. Where were they born, how did they live and when did they die?
Where do you begin...?
