Epic Centre, Lincolnshire Showground, Lincoln
Sunday 27th October 2013
10:00am - 4:00pm

TheGenealogist and S&N are proud to sponsor the brand new event 'Echoes of the Past', helping promote family history in Lincolnshire.

'Echoes of the Past' promises to be the first major family history show for the county. S&N will be providing specialist help, talks and advice on the day. These will be just part of the planned talks and lectures available.

With many societies, companies and archives attending the event, it should be on your calendar as not to be missed. The event is aimed at helping people learn more about family history research in Lincolnshire, what resources are available, and offering hints and tips to help researchers along the way.

It will also be a great way to experience memories of Lincolnshire, with particular focus on aviation, agriculture and engineering - three main industries that featured in many people's lives.

'Echoes of the Past' will also feature the Lincolnshire Family History Society, Lincolnshire Archives, professional Genealogists and the Lincolnshire Aviation Centre.

Apprenticeship Records

We have added over one million apprenticeship records to our Diamond subscription. You can find these under our Occupational Records section.

The records give name, addresses and trades of the masters, and the names of the apprentices, along with the sum the master received for the apprenticeship. Until 1752, it was also common to see the names of the apprentices’ parents on the record.

Who Do You Think You Are?

Each week we follow the celebrities as they trace their ancestors. Keep an eye on our Featured Articles page to keep up with the latest stories.

This week's episode sees Nitin Ganatra trace his family history back through many hardships and struggles. We learn why his family fled Kenya, and discover an interesting marriage from his maternal line.

Nick Hewer joined the ranks of celebrities last week to take the journey through their family's past on 'Who Do You Think You Are?'. His ancestors made the world a safe place, saving lives and influencing politics.

Gary Lineker's episode proved to be very popular. The former England footballer renowned for 'goal-poacing' discovered that he wasn't the only 'poacher' in his family tree!
