One-Place Study: A tool for exploring the past

Get ready for All About That Place with this talk

This talk will begin by explaining more about what a One-Place Study is and will highlight sources used with explanations of how they would be utilised in more ways than they would be in your Family Tree. The session will also include a look at two case studies drawn from Julie’s own One-Place Study of St Mary Bourne in Hampshire.
