You can start your family history research at Lincolnshire Archives even if your ancestors did not live in Lincolnshire.

Useful sources are the various indexes to wills, births, marriages and deaths in England and Wales and also the trade and professional directories.

If your ancestors did live in Lincolnshire, then you may want to look at the census returns, parish registers and the pre-1858 Lincolnshire probate records such as wills and inventories. Our reference books and other archives will help you to find out more about where and how your family lived.

The best place to start your local history search is your local library or by contacting Lincolnshire Archives. For more information and contact details please follow the relevant links.
