This web site contains a list of books on Genealogy, Heraldry and Topography in my modest library, which may be useful to fellow researchers. I shall be happy to look up specific enquiries. Please give as much detail as possible, as time does not allow me to answer general questions on family history. This service is absolutely free of charge.

The books are divided under the following headings:

• England & Wales

• Ireland

• Scotland

• Yorkshire

• General

• Heraldry

I am personally interested in the following:
