Issue Summary
Tudor time travel Discover top tips and resources to help you trace your family tree five centuries ago! Plus gen up on perhaps the most famous family in history – the Tudors. When Henry VIII’s top civil servant, Thomas Cromwell, decreed that each and every parish should keep registers of baptisms, marriages and burials, little did he realise that he would be making family history possible 500 years later. We look at the records, resources and research skills to help you trace family in the 1500s
