Produktbeschreibung
The Tidmarsh family tree is the story of a family, my family, across twelve generations, charting the historical legacy and records as closely as possible. The story celebrates the continuation of a family line that started from an Anglo-Saxon homestead in Berkshire and picks up from records dating back to the 16th Century in the Cotswolds. It follows our agricultural background, the family migration to the brutal Docklands of east London and the relocation to the bland council estates of Downham and Bellingham. It follows the story of ordinary people living through the events of English history and concludes with the story my grandfather, a most extraordinary man. In my travels to uncover my family history, I encountered mysteries, sadness, disappointments, some beautiful Churches, some lovely people and the most charming village museum. What started off as the completion of a small family tree with an explanatory narrative became an obsession to find out as much as possible about the family that came before me. The book includes anecdotes from my cousins, family trees, chronological data and an insight into how I processed the information I sourced to create a structured document, which I hope will do at least two things - help others who have an interest in genealogy and inspire someone to write volume two!

Autorenporträt
The author spent many years travelling the globe, trouble-shooting property and facilities management issues for a large Anglo-American corporation, specialising in the Middle-East and Africa before moving to Asia for 5 years. Writing has always been a passion and this book came about after he took up the mantle offered by his cousins to follow up on a family tree started by his Aunty. This book is the result of that task and one that he found both fascinating and emotional. This is a niche book that will mean a lot more to family than the general public, but like all of our personal stories, it draws in people and events that shape us, one way or another.He has previously written a book of poetry and is currently working on a book of photographs and anecdotes from his travels around the world. He will soon be working on a travel book, which will be based on a journey in Central Asia, following a section of the Silk Road to retrace the adventures of a childhood hero. He is a proud OAP, married with two grown up children, plays the Drums and loves family trees.
