Emmy and I think Sarah Bridges shared some cracking examples of estate servants registers from the Spencer estates archive at Northamptonshire Archives in today’s Society of Genealogists researching in Northamptonshire #genealogy sessions
Always great to rummage in the recent acquisitions to the roll pedigree collection in Society of Genealogists archives. This pedigree (1154-1621)of the Bodenham family of Herefordshire & Rutland compiled by William Camden 1621 came in last year and is rather a treat #genealogy
