Berkshire Heritage Fair
For family and Social Historians
If you have an interest in historic Berkshire or a particular family, location, industry or transport system within it, you will almost certainly find this online Heritage Fair beneficial.
You will be able to:
- Connect with local experts about locations, businesses, industries or families of interest.
- Some of these organisations have their own archive and are able to give advice about it, how the archive may help you and how you can access it.
- They will share general or specific information and images pointing people to new sources they may have been previously unaware of.
- Share information on your own family or heritage research with the participating organisations.
- Gain advice and guidance on Berkshire-specific resources and sources.
- Get help with your own family history or heritage research – from getting started to breaking down brick walls.
- Build lasting connections with new contacts beyond this event.
Many of the Family History societies from our adjoining counties are also joining us for the day and will be able to answer questions on their counties.
Session timings are pitched to allow as many people as possible from across the world to join in. Last time, participants joined us from the US, Canada and Australia – can we add even more countries this time? The event uses Zoom breakout rooms, and each participating heritage organisation will have their own room
It’s free and you can attend one or both sessions. Simply book for as many sessions as you wish to join.
10am - 12 noon
2 - 4pm
