A GENEALOGY SERVICE BASED IN NORFOLK
Some awareness of the past is deemed by many to be necessary for a rich and full appreciation of life. The past constitutes the foundations of our society and our own lives. Within it are the seeds of the world in which we live and of who we are. It can be liberating to know why we live in the way we do and why we find ourselves to be the type of person we are. From a basis of some knowledge of what came before, we can move into our present lives and our futures more meaningfully and purposefully. Contrary to the old joke that the study of history ‘has no future to it’, it is actually packed with the beginnings of the future.
