History in Focus - Manorial Records
About this Event
Each 'History in Focus' session will explain how to use the searchroom and online catalogue to find documents on a particular topic before talking through some examples and then giving you a chance to explore documents connected to the topic in more detail.
Manor records are an undervalued source for tracing house history, and can help with family history research too. This session explains how the manor court system worked, how to identify and access key manorial records such as court rolls and books, surveys and rentals, and how to use these in your research.
Refreshments included.
Pay what you can. When you book this event you will have the option to give a donation. This is optional and entirely at your discretion.
