Dear Family Historian,

It may not feel like it but we're now in the middle of the great British summer! Let's look on the positive side, rainy days are good for the garden and give us a good excuse to catch up on our research. Speaking of which, you'll have some catching up to do with our latest releases.

We have added over 28 Million records, more high-resolution images, parish records, birth records and another complete decade of London newspapers. With these new records available, why not take out our special offer and save up to £40 on TheGenealogist subscriptions this month.

One of the largest family history fairs is on this weekend at York Racecourse. This major Northern family history event has stands from societies and companies from all over the country, including S&N Genealogy and the show sponsor TheGenealogist. The fair is a great place to meet with experts on a variety of topics and areas. There are also a number of free talks available throughout the day.

While on the subject of Yorkshire, our article this month looks at how two of Yorkshire's own developed two very different beverages.

We have just finished two essential Irish resource CDs in time for the email news:-

Our Ireland, Belfast and Ulster 1926 Directory has nearly 2,000 pages covering names and addresses allowing you to search for your ancestors. It contains private residents with their addresses and all sorts of trades people.

O'Hart's Irish Pedigrees, originally published in 1881, contains 866 pages of Celtic Genealogies along with the pedigrees of some English, Anglo-Irish, and Anglo-Norman families that settled in Ireland.

Don't forget to check out our new releases and special offers which can save you up to a third on some products.

We hope you enjoy the new resources and can benefit from our many offers and finally that we'll see some sun before Autumn comes!

All the best, Sue & Nigel

High Resolution Images for the Census

When viewing an original census page, there is now the option to view the image in greyscale rather than the standard black-and-white images. These high-resolution images are much more readable.

We have added these new high resolution images to our 1891 Census for London, Surrey, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire and part of Staffordshire, with the rest of England and Wales to follow shortly.
