Click on the icon above to search the Origins UK database; type in names relevant to your family history, or search for any topic in history that may be connected to your family.
 | | The prime function of Origins UK is to provide obscure, rare, previously unpublished data which is pre-census and before official registration (1837); in addition to a whole range of material which often is unique to our site. Therefore, a high percentage of our data will not be found anywhere on any other genealogy/family history site.
Correspondingly we provide a varied and informative collection of social history articles, old documents, deeds, court rolls, extracts from wills and diaries, etc. To compliment all this we also have available a fascinating image gallery in which we include members’ donated photos for linking families and providing a visual social history record. | | | | |
