Discover Your Ancestors - Inside the July Issue


 The July issue of the UK digital magazine Discover YourAncestors is now available. I took some time over this long holiday weekend to read the many social history articles in this edition. I will admit to being a little bias because I have an interview in this edition. Make sure you check it out. Discover Your Ancestors is a valuable magazine if you have UK ancestors in your tree, filled with research help and social history articles that will prove enlightening.  

Here's  a summary of what’s available in the July issue and for about  $1.50 a month you can have it delivered directly to your inbox.
