What's inside?
  • An ahnentafel index, to summarise your current knowledge and act as a table of contents.
  • A full page per person to record yourself (or your subject) and 62 direct ancestors.
  • Double page spreads arranged in logical family groups.
  • Headings to help you to navigate quickly and easily to the parents and child of an individual.
  • Space to add key UK information and additional notes, such as military history.
  • Checkboxes to mark off the key UK documents used to support your findings.
Each person has an 'ahnentafel' number. You are the root person - number 1. Your parents are numbers 2 and 3, and your grandparents are numbers 4, 5, 6, and 7. Ahnentafel numbers are a great way to file, tag, and organise all your family history documents and photographs. There is an ahnentafel index at the beginning of the book where you can add your ancestors' names, to help you to navigate to a particular ancestor.

At the foot of each page there are check boxes for key evidence you have obtained: a civil birth certificate, a church birth or naming record, a civil marriage certificate, a church marriage record, a civil death certificate, a burial or cremation record, any available census or register returns, including the 1921 Census and 1939 Register, and a final check box for proof of relationship established via a DNA match. These checkboxes are designed to reflect typical documents available in England.

I hope you enjoy using the FAMILY HISTORY RECORD BOOK and find it as useful as I do.

The prompts and checkboxes have been imprved in my Eight Generation record book. Why not take a look?
