Barking up the wrong tree - John Titford
A series of cautionary tales for family historians, each designed to show
how easy it is
to make wrong assumptions or to draw inaccurate conclusions - in short, to
bark up the
wrong family tree. The focus will be on British genealogical sources, but
the examples
presented here will be based upon the presenter’s experience as a
professional
genealogist working for clients on both sides of the Atlantic.

There is a hidden treasure of people from every walk of life that may not be
recorded elsewhere and that can now be easily and freely searched.
This unique record set contains a wide variety of records covering
non-conformist records, early birth registries, Maternity Records, Fleet
Marriages, Burials, Overseas BMDs, BMDs aboard ships and British Churches
abroad. Covering the period 1654 to 1950.
The Non-Conformist records cover Methodists, Wesleyans, Baptists,
Independents, Protestant Dissenters, Congregationalist, Presbyterians,
Catholics, Unitarians, Quakers (Society of Friends), Dissenters, Royal
Chapels and Russian Orthodox.
Many famous writers, entrepreneurs, social reformers and political leaders
are within these records which before the project was completed would have
taken a lifetime to search.
The Fleet Marriages alone have proved a stumbling block to many researchers
when browsing the microfilm. John Titford, author and speaker, found his
missing relative within just a few minutes of using the site.
