Have you tried the national archive site particularly the probate records? I have found most of my earlier ancestors through wills. Anne

Do the records of the place in question only go back as far as this or is it that they moved to this place at that time? What is the furthest record back you have? Have you tried looking on the IGI for clues? Julie

Like a lot of people I imagine, after several visits to local record offices, I have found and added all available persons on record to my tree together with many families marrying into mine & those found thru GU thank you, but what do I do now? how do I find the next generations? where would any further records of farm labourers be? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks david.
