My growing collection of articles exploring family history, Regency society, and the social history that sits quietly around them. Here you’ll find research guides, historical context, parish records, migration stories, and occasional examples of handwriting that should probably qualify as a form of cryptography.
I’m Lisa, a family historian with a particular interest in Regency and Georgian lives. I spend far too much time in archives, drink alarming amounts of tea, and occasionally discover that an entire branch of a family tree is based on an assumption I made in 2007.
