Volunteer Research Team
As its
name implies, this network of enthusiastic volunteers give of their time
voluntarily during their already busy lives. A team structure covers individual
parishes and is coordinated by
Jean Barnett.
We also have specialist members who will look for information in the subject
area of their own research – e.g. military history. They are enthusiastic and
willing but they cannot do your family tree for you – you need to be as specific
as possible with information you supply. There will be a small charge and
extraneous expenses for photocopying , certificates etc. will also need to be
borne by the person requesting information. This service is for members only and
applications need to be in writing. Please go to the Research Page for the scale
of charges and to download an application form if you are a member.
