A Brightlingsea Town Guide

Genealogy

During the first months of this year, the BBC will be promoting organisations activities as part of its History 2000 initiative. The primary goal of History 2000 is to enable viewers and listeners of history programmes, who may be inspired by what they have seen or heard, to seek further information on their particular subject or theme.
Supporting the initiative, Brightlingsea Museum will be contributing local family history, research and use of documents, under the subject title Genealogy.  This is one of the BBC's subject which also include Local History, Social and Industrial, Military, Oral History, Archaeology and Ancient History, Art and Architecture.
