Researching my family during the Edwardian period
I have been interested in my family’s history for about a month now and the diagram of our family tree seems to be growing branches by the week! The Edwardian period seems to hold a lot of information as my family was involved with overseas trade and there seems to be a large number of records between coasts. Ship’s records and passenger logs are helping me tremendously and I have found some signs that I may have some German heritage in me. My ancestors, even the ones nearer my own ‘modern’ time, are a fairly complex mix of German, Irish, and a few Welsh names and places are popping up as well. I never knew this could be so interesting!
