England Genealogy
Neil D. Holden
Welcome to our research website on English genealogy! Over the centuries, the English have established themselves as a nation of record-keepers. Fortunately, many of the records kept over the centuries have survived through to the present day, and offer excellent opportunities to successfully conduct English genealogical research. Although research using English records can sometimes be challenging, the rewards can be great. If you wish to research the English ancestry of your family in the 19th, 18th, 17th centuries, or beyond, ProGenealogists can help. Just ask us for a free estimate anytime!
The ProGenealogists team is familiar with all aspects of English research. Our main office is located in the perfect place for anyone who wishes to pursue their English ancestry - just a short walk from the Family History Library in Salt Lake City! The LDS Family History Library contains a huge collection of English resources. These are resources that are generally scattered throughout the counties of England, but here the English records are all in one place. Where an onsite English genealogist would have to travel from one archive to another throughout England in order to find the records they are looking for, ProGenealogists's research team has access to many of these records all under one roof. When needed, ProGenealogists has an extensive network of expert colleagues on the ground in key parts of England.
On this website you will find information pertaining to records most commonly used when conducting English genealogical research. You’ll find information categorized by type and region. Be sure also to visit our pages on research in Scotland, Wales, Australia, New Zealand and India. Many people tracing their English ancestry require research in one or more of these countries at some point. So, feel free to explore and learn more about British research!
