People in the borough who wish to trace their ancestors can visit Wokingham and Woodley Libraries for expert help.
Volunteers from the Berkshire Family History Society currently run monthly Family History Advice Sessions at the two libraries.
The sessions are run on a drop-in basis so there’s no need to book. They are appropriate for all levels of experience and for people who have ancestors in Berkshire or elsewhere.
Family History Advice Sessions in 2010
Wokingham Library
2pm to 5pm
Last Tuesday in each month (except December)

Library customers who visit Wokingham, Woodley or Lower Earley also have free onsite access to Ancestry online, the world’s biggest Family History website. Other resources about Family History are also available in these libraries.
