Tracing Your Roman Catholic Ancestors

Description

(Stuart A Raymond)  The aim of this book is to identify the sources needed to trace Catholic family and local history in England and Wales.

It begins by outlining the history and structure of English Catholicism.  Sources are scattered in a wide range of record offices and libraries, one chapter offers a guide to locating these records, and conducting research.

Early Catholic history has to be explored through records of its enemies, so these are also covered.
