    • Hello Ann
      The group discusses many aspects of Family History and several of the group use ancestry I would suggest you attend a meeting to see if it is suitable. But Ancestry does have its own help site as well.
      Regards

  2. Do you have a list of talks that you give on local history. I am the secretary for Litherland History Society and am looking for speakers for our 2018 Programme. We meet at 10am on the first Tuesday of every month at Litherland Town Hall Health centre. We are only a small group of around 16-20 but enjoy a variety of talks. Could you also tell us how much you charge for talks. We do have a fitted screen for powerpoint or films.
