I am coming back to the UK for Christmas and New Year, staying to the middle of January, I wondered if anyone Knows if there are going to be any history fairs in the South West, around this time. I have been to a Heritage Fair as they are called here in Canada, but they only have local history information and nothing to buy regarding census cd's etc... Amanda

Thanks to everyone that left a message, I will be staying in Bristol, where my family are from. I have thought about joining the local history societies to Bristol, but have not got around to doing it as yet. If anyone has the addresses of Somerset, Gloucesteshire ones that would be great. Thanks again Amanda

Hi Amanda, If you type Somerset Family History into Google, it comes up with lots of information for the area you're after. Dierdre X
