Discover Your Ancestors
Issue 047
Welcome to the March issue of Discover Your Ancestors Periodical, your monthly family and social history magazine.
This month we have an interesting, different angle on the First World War as the centenary rumbles on: the role of Scouts and Guides is not particularly well known, but Sharon Brookshaw is here with the story.
As usual, we cover a lot of ground in a short space: back to medieval universities, for example, via a pioneering female physician and the fascinating snippets that can be gleaned from some of our ancestors’ weather diaries.
Meanwhile Issue 6 of our annual print magazine is now in shops such as WHSmiths, crammed with more than 30 entirely new features, as well as boasting a brilliant cover DVD with lots of useful data and amazing offers worth more than £170. You can also order a copy right away via our own website www.discoveryourancestors.co.uk. And of course it’s only a month until the Who Do You Think You Are? Live show in Birmingham – we’ll be there as usual, so do say hello!
Enjoy this issue in the meantime. Andrew Chapman, Editor.
