Thank you! Great tips, especially the ancestry.co.uk website for tips. Timely for me since I have ancestors born in England, but not finished gathering US records.
Great tips! But what if you don't have anything but a name and a legend? Where do you begin? My English ancestor was supposedly born on a merchant ship headed to Cuba--mom Rosa Ritter, who died after childbirth, was supposedly meeting dad who was in the British Navy. I think it happened in the 1700's when Cuba belonged to England. Not sure where to begin looking--British Naval records? Merchant ship records? British marriage records? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I think i might erase the comment i just put up because no one’s answered YOUR comment on 9 years. That doesn’t give me much hope mine will get answered
My great grandparents surnames were Hone and they and my ancestors lived for centuries around the Oxfordshire and Warwickshire area and I was just wondering if this means they have any relation, whether distant or not with the Anglo-Irish Hone family who can trace their origins back to Samuel Hone from Marlborough. If anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Anyone have any info on McMahon? Trying to find records for that name in England brought back a LOT of names. I have no desire to look through thousands of Names. I have no birth or death dates or first name; my dad never told me any of that. Any ideas on narrowing it down?
I reached my English roots, I reached an ancestor who was born in 1766 in Middlesex but the trail went cold, I can't find anything about his parents. Does anyone have a tip that may help? Thanks in advance.
I like your tutorials but may I comment on one thing you say about England. I am English living in the UK. You say there are very few second names and not much variation of first name. Totally not true. England has a long history and there are thousands of names and variations. I hope you don’t mind me correcting you.
Hi Christa. This is a very good video and I know I will be spending a lot of time researching the early England parish records. I have been able to research some of my paternal ancestors to the Tudor and early Stuart periods. Some of them were granted titles of nobility by Henry VIII and Elizabeth I. How do I denote the title(s) of nobility in the names of these ancestors in accordance with good genealogical practice? Hope you see my note, and thanks in advance for your answer!

In the FACTS column there is a TITLE fact that you can add and then put in a date when they started using that title. Most nobility change titles a few times throughout their lives, so it makes sense to have it be an event in their life (when a title was conferred upon them) rather than a part of their name. Hope that makes sense. ~Crista

Is it the same for Welsh, Scottish and Ireland ancestors? , England is one of four of the UK, Utah is one of 50 of USA
I have zero records for any relatives or ancestors in the USA. Are there any tips for researching the UK only?
