Phil Isherwood

We have enjoyed Phil’s talks before and this talk will be useful if you want to
investigate the lives of ancestors who lived in the census-poor early and mid-20th
century, had ancestors who were mobile during the age of Empire or if you have
discovered little from traditional genealogical sources.You are invited to a LIVE Zoom meeting.
