Family History Tours

Explore Your Family History & Ancestral Heritage
across Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset

A great number of international visitors to the South West of England come here to explore their family history and ancestral heritage.
Folk from all over the USA, Canada and Australia regularly visit sleepy, remote and time forgotten villages in the depths of the West Country with one aim, historical closure. A sense of placement and understanding of heritage as it were.
Cornwall, Devon and both Somerset and Dorset also feature greatly in international family history quests with many voyages and inspirational journeys made from these shores in search of something new and better maybe.
Devon and Cornwall are riddled with tiny villages and rural communities where time seems to have stood still for centuries. It is these small villages and towns that many visiting folk wish to immerse themselves and delve deeper, exploring churchyards, ancient Norman and sometimes even Saxon churches, their records and writings to hopefully make connections that span generations.

A family history tour can connect the dots. Providing you with the local and regional experience of navigating the narrow West Country lanes and roads to take you to key places on your must see and visit lists. 
If you have genealogy transcripts and findings whereby you have place names, possible addresses and maybe even churchyards where we may find head stones, lets go! I love a good adventure and these Family History Tours are exactly that. Often taking me to places I may have never been or passed through with no need to stop previously.

Together with your existing findings and any relevant information as well as some more refined local enquiries, we can devise an informative, immersive and inspiring journey to these old locations where your ancestors may have lived, worked and been schooled. We may even try to book a lunch in their local Inn to relive their day to day moments, not much has changed in most villages!
Get in touch to discuss your Family History Links to the West Country and we can work to build a great tour that provides the regional links adventure as well as the regional closure you are seeking.
