Coles Tracing Your Victorian Ancestors: A Guide for Family Historians at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Victorian records illuminate how families lived, worked, and connected within a rapidly expanding empire. The Victorian era was a time of dramatic change. An age of industry, democracy, mass literacy, expanding towns, and a rapidly growing Empire. It was also a period that generated an unprecedented wealth of records, leaving today's family historians with a rich paper trail to explore. Building on the foundation of civil registration and the national census records (both first introduced in this era), Tracing Your Victorian Ancestors takes you far beyond the familiar sources. From military and employment records to religious archives, property documents, school logs, workhouse files, and the rich world of Victorian newspapers. Whether you are tracing your family tree or simply fascinated by social history, you'll gain insight into the daily lives of Victorians: how they worked, worshipped, travelled, learned, and entertained themselves. Clear, accessible, and packed with research tips, this book is an essential companion for anyone tracing their roots through Victorian Britain.
