To the listers who live in the north east, Thought some of you who live local, may be in interested in the History day at Durham CRO in May. I went last year, and found it really interesting - learnt quite a few things! Below is what I've copied and pasted from the Durham web page. Discover Durham History Day - 15 May 2004 As part of 'Local History Month 2004' the Record Office will be holding a Discover Durham History Day in County Hall, Durham City, on Saturday 15 May 2004, between 9.30 a.m. and 4.00 p.m. The day will consist of a series of one-hour sessions which you can 'mix and match'; and the topics include: learning to read old documents, tracing your family tree, maps and plans, and World War I records. The cost of the day will be £10 (including tea/coffee) and a booking form with further details is available as either a pdf file or a text file. Below is the URL, if anyone wants to download the order form, and find out more details about the sessions etc. http://www.durham.gov.uk/recordoffice/usp.nsf/pws/Durham+Record+Office+-+Abo ut+Us+-+Latest+News Jan Boyes
