Manchester was a centre for immigration and emigration, as The World's First Industrial city, many people left the North West of England and settled all over The World. This is your opportunity to discover your family heritage, working together with local libraries and yourself, we can trace your family back to their roots. I build a portfolio of relevant places before your arrival, enabling you to maximise your time in the area, finding graves, houses, schools, churches and even long lost relatives. Please do not hesitate do contact me to discuss your requirements .
The very nature of these tours make them highly personal, tracing family can be a highly emotional experience. The research and planning that goes into the tour, makes them successful, all aspects of the tour are carefully planned. I arrange entry into churches, find graves and any other relevant places. Planning the route and itinerary, can be made with all the relevant information.
Tell your guide which places matter to you, skip what doesn't, and tailor the experience for your group's needs. Not finding what you want? Message your guide to build something unique.
