Talks in the Community
The Curator is able to give talks to community groups. Each talk lasts for approximately 40 minutes. The talks are complimented by the Museums handling collection of artefacts and a series of handouts. A donation towards Museum funds is appreciated for each talk.
These are the talks that are currently available:
What did you do in the war granddad? Family History Research Sources and
the Manchester Regiment.

This talk highlights some of the many sources available to the family historian researching their ancestors that served with the British army in the twentieth century, focusing on the Manchester Regiment specifically.
