The Delaforce Family History Research
THE DELAFORCE FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH by Patrick Delaforce & Ken Baldry THE DELAFORCE FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH by Patrick Delaforce & Ken Baldry This is a book designed and produced to interest and encourage readers to delve back into the centuries in search of their ancestry. Interest in Family History research has grown considerably and is now widespread. A hundred regional Family History Societies cover the U.K. with a total membership of over 50,000 families. Another hundred societies are to be found in America, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, with over 1,000,000 families as members. The romantic story of the Delaforces over the last sixteen hundred years has been carefully researched. Step by step the reader is shown how the research was accomplished using dozens of different sources. Genealogy is the construction of a family tree, but Family History research puts flesh on the bare bones. Delaforces were diplomats and fishmongers, Kings’ men and silk weavers, Secret Agents and wine shippers, French Huguenots and pawnbrokers. In earlier years, they were kings and religious leaders. A very detailed chapter lists 500 cross-indexed Sources in the U.K. for the reader and would-be Family Historian. Other chapters bring to life the discovery of American, Australian and Canadian families with appropriate local sources of family history research for readers interested in locating possible relatives in those countries.Many pages of old prints, certificates, wills and photographs illustrate the by-gone centuries. The book jacket cover depicts the dramatic landing of the French Huguenot refugees on the English beaches in 1685. -
Special Collections, Hartley Library
Special Collections, Hartley library Archives Information Sheet 1- Jewish Genealogy 1. Genealogical material at the University of Southampton The Archives and Manuscripts at the University of Southampton holds only a limited amount of genealogical material. The three main collections of Jewish genealogy, those of Sir Thomas Colyer Fergusson, Ronald D'Arcy Hart and A.M.Hyamson, which were formerly part of Anglo-Jewish Archives are now lodged with the Society of Genealogists in London. Information on the collections held at Southampton can be found in C.M.Woolgar and K.Robson A guide to the archive and manuscript collections of the Hartley Library (University of Southampton Library, Occasional Paper 11; 1992) and C.M.Woolgar and K.Robson A guide to the archive and manuscript collections of the Hartley Library, University of Southampton, MSS 201-300 (University of Southampton Library, Archive Lists, Catalogues and Guides Series 7; 2000). An electronic version of the guides is available at: www.southampton.ac.uk/archives K.Robson `Southampton University's Jewish archives as a genealogical resource' in Shemot (Mar 1998) pp. 20-4 gives an introduction to material of use for research into family history. 2. General notes on tracing your Jewish ancestors It is important to note that as many Jewish families - especially those from Eastern Europe - did not have surnames when they arrived in Great Britain changes of name occurred. If these changes were conducted by deed poll and the deed polls enrolled then they can be found in records at The National Archives. For deed polls which were not enrolled, there may be material in the national or local press. -
