You are in [People] [Family History]


Many people visit the Hungerford Virtual Museum as part of their research into their family history. Family names will be mentioned on pages all over the web site, and it is often useful to use the Search facility to bring all occurrences of a name on to one page.

The Hungerford Historical Association Archive does contain some further information on local families, not all of which is yet available through the Virtual Museum.

The Virtual Museum is not normally able to help with detailed family history research but the Administrator is happy to answer initial e-mail enquiries, which will often point be of help to those seeking genealogical assistance.
