This talk looks at key concepts to consider when looking at our ancestors’ working lives. Why do occupation records help our research? What is included in the records? When were the records created through their career? Where can we find the sources for occupations, professions and trades? How can we use the information from occupational records to understand our ancestors? This talk will give you inspiration to research your ancestors’ occupations in more depth and understand more about their lives.
