Drop in session – the 1939 register

Drop in session – the 1939 register

Stuck with your family tree or want to bring your research forward to find living relatives? Come to this free advice session with expert Sandra Barkwith and find out how the 1939 register can help you. Bring the research you have completed to date, copies rather than original documents are safest, and Sandra will suggest potential new approaches or avenues to explore. 

The Centre is open from 10.30am to 4.30pm on this date so, if you have time, you may stay longer to fit in more research. 

Open to society members and non-members.

FREE just turn up.
