Family History Day
On Wed 1st February Pontypool Library and Blaenavon Museum will be joining forces to host a Family History Day. It will be held in the new Community Room in Pontypool Library between 10.00am and 1.00pm.
If you would like help with your family tree please come along to this free event. Staff from the museum will be there to offer expert advice and tell you about the great success stories they've had in tracing the relatives of local people. There will be a display of some of the interesting discoveries they have made.
There will be plenty of information and advice from staff and FREE access to Find My Past while you are in the library. Find My Past has detailed census records from 1841 to 1911 plus Birth, Marriage and Death indexes and many local records from around the UK.
If you join the library you will be able to come in any time to use the free version of Find My Past - it is always a good idea to book a computer in advance as we do get quite busy.
We also hold a regular Family History session every Thurs at Blaenavon Library 10.30 - 1.00.
You are welcome to come along to this too!
