Yes, definitely going again this year. I will take note of the talks this time, and perhaps listen to more. I do love a wander round there. |

Commercial, voluntary and public organisations with links to family history will host stands, display materials and offer advice on how to move forward with research. Amongst the groups present will be: Lancashire Family History and Heraldry Society (incl. Chorley Branch) Chorley Historical Society Chorley Reference Library Bolton Family History Society LFHHS Irish Ancestry Group Registration Certification Service Landy Publishing Antiquarian Postcards Local Military Records North Meols Family History Society Rimmer Family History Society Upholland Family History Society Catholic Family History Society Family History Partnership LancsBMD – Chorley District Team In addition, Astley Hall will be open to the public (admission free) and the Friends of Astley Hall will be present in period costume.

http://www.lfhhs.org.uk/chorley/celebration/index.htm 'During the day, there will be talks related to Family History' Shame they don't publish the program here. Enthusiasts could plan their day around the talks that are of interest to them. |

Cocked up last night. I invited my parents and in-laws for a meal on Saturday night, forgetting that I will be out all day and not able to cook said meal!  Luckily mum asked this afternoon what time we will be back on Saturday. M-in-law had to re-jig her weekend but I am now cooking Sunday lunch instead. I only want to show off and feed them my home-grown veggies!  Is it my age? |

It starts at 11am so I will probably be there soon after that, have a quick look round, see what the talks are, and then plan some lunch around that. What time do you hope to make it? |
