About this webinar
Our ancestors were people, just like us. They were born, they lived, they died, they laughed, they cried, and they fell in love – or should that be luff…? Join people-finding wizard and genealogist Kirsty Gray on a journey through her one place study about the small Devon parishes of Luffincott and Tetcott; learn about the history of these villages, their inhabitants and their challenges, as Kirsty talks you through the trials and triumphs of conducting a one place study.

I always love when I watch something totally unrelated to my usual research and find it so interesting and enjoyable.
Learned something I knew very little about. Fascinating!
Kirsty's enthusiasm is infectious. Makes me really want to do a One Place Study. (and travel to Devon)
Very helpful, I have always been interested in not only my family details but the places they lived to add flavour to their lives.
An interesting story with a lot of helpful details for other research areas.
Enjoyed presentation. Easy to follow. Great syllabus.
A bit different…and very enjoyable. Makes me want to travel!
I loved this webinar and found that even though I live in Canada, the information has helped me considerably for further one place studies.
