Family History Books
Extract of a family history book
Research is an exciting thing. When you go on a quest for your ancestors, what will you find? Will you find generations of fishermen or farm labourers or will you find criminals or pioneers?
And when you have your bundle of certificates and images taken off census returns and notes copied from parish registers, what do you do next? How do you preserve them as a record for yourself and future generations? If you are a web designer, you could build a website to tell the family story, or maybe you could write a book. Depending on the material you have, you could create a multimedia presentation.
For those who feel daunted at trying to do those things, Aries Research can turn your family history into a book. Every family is different but you can expect to see included
:
- records of your family
- images taken from parish records, certificates and census returns
- photographs
- family tree charts
as well as other information to put it all into context such as
- local information
- social history
- maps

Aries Research will write up your family story and produce a physical book for you. If you wish, you can then order further copies. Prices start from £500.
For more details on this service, please contact Aries Research explaining what sort of material you have collected. You may also be interested in our FAQ about family history books.
