New online records will help Mancunians find out more about the lives of their relatives
Have you ever wanted to know more about the lives of your great great grandparents, or wondered who lived in your house long before you did?
In partnership with Manchester Archives, the non-census documents will allow people to uncover new details about their ancestors. The records include rate books and Inquisition records, which will help researchers piece together more detailed information about Manchester and its people. “What’s so useful about these records is that they help to bridge the years between Censuses – conducted every 10 years – so that you can discover what your ancestors were up to in those intervening years. Perhaps you'll find a famous Manchester face living in your house, or trace your ancestor to some surprising and unexpected places."
