If you are just starting out with your family history research and just "planting" your family tree, or have many years of cultivated experience then Family History Fairs are definitely the place to visit.
Family History Fairs have many exhibitors attending with stands including many local (and sometimes distant) Family History Societies. There is a multitude of things for you to buy including publications and CD's of parish baptisms, marriages and burials. Also Monumental Inscriptions and census transcripts from many of the local family history societies where your ancestors may have lived. Books, charts, maps - the list goes on!
Plenty of other items are available at family history fairs to also help you record, store and display the masses of information you will gather. Expert advice is on hand as well and there is always a genuine willingness to help if you are new or have just hit a brick wall with your research!!
Family Tree Folk with our unique range of genealogy gifts, greeting cards, magnifiers and other items will be taking a stand at a number of Family History Fairs in 2008.
We will list the Family History Fairs on this page and highlight the ones we will be attending. Please come along and see us and all the products featured on our website (and much more). We are sure from the reactions and the positive feedback we have received from many customers so far you will only then appreciate the real quality and unique gift range we are offering to genealogists (especially those with a good genealogical sense of humour!!).
Regular updates will be undertaken with any new dates and venues for Family History Fairs and also to let you know where you can meet the "Folk" from Family Tree Folk, so keep checking our web site with a regular visit.
**** Note - Family Tree Folk take no responsibility for any cancellations or change of date or venue for any of these Family History Fairs.
We strongly advise all interested individuals to check with the relevant fair organisers and/or their website link. |
