The Victorian Legacy - what our Ancestors did next

An online talk by Helen Baggott

We are delighted to welcome the acclaimed and popular author and speaker Helen Baggott to lick-off our online talks programme for 2025.

This talk explores the lives of our ancestors through the messages that they wrote and the postcards they sent. Millworkers in Yorkshire, families affected by the first national rail strike, visitors to London and the execution of murderers are just some of the stories included in this talk. Our ancestors left a remarkable record of their lives; will you discover your own ancestors through postcards from the past?

2 - 3.15pm

This is an online talk using Zoom technology and so pre-booking is required. Bookings close one day before the event.
