BOOK - Welsh Family History: A Guide to Research, Second Edition
by John Rowlands & Sheila Rowland
Because the cultural and linguistic characteristics which have prevailed in Wales over the centuries require a radically different approach to genealogical research, this handbook on Welsh genealogy deals primarily with those aspects of family history research that are unique to Wales. Each of its twenty-one chapters treats an essential element of Welsh genealogy, and each chapter is written by a specialist qualified to guide the researcher through the pitfalls and challenges of Welsh genealogy.
Coverage includes but is not limited to the following topics: Welsh archives, family history societies, parish registers, civil registration, surnames, place names, the IGI for Wales, wills and estate records, printed and manuscript pedigrees, emigration, and a variety of miscellaneous sources.
Review:
Probably the most comprehensive book on Welsh family history, expertly written and covering a wide range of subjects relating to Welsh research. As Welsh records and customs are different to English this book is invaluable. This book is not a step by step guide for complete beginners. Instead it is aimed at those with some knowledge of research generally who are either experienceing difficulties with their Welsh lines or who are, perhaps, coming to Welsh research for the first time. The editorial group had two main aims in mind when steering this book to publication. First, to give readers an insight into the social, cultural, religious and linguistic background of Wales and the ways in which this can effect hamily history research. Secondly, it wanted to dispel the widely held belief that these aspects pose insurmountable barriers to researching Welsh ancestors.
