Laura's article in the latest issue of Discover Your Ancestors periodical focuses on using naturalisation and denization records to research the lives of 'alien' ancestors who settled in Britain from overseas during the course of the last few centuries. The records, which can be searched on TheGenealogist.co.uk, provide useful leads to tracing your ancestor's roots in their country of origin. DYA periodical can be downloaded as a PDF for £2.49 from www.discoveryourancestors.co.uk/current-issue/. The current issue also features an article by Melvyn Jones about the reasons that some of our ancestors migrated, alongside Jill Morris's exploration of records charting the British settlement of New Zealand, Ruth Symes's analysis of our ancestors' lives during old age, a look at some artefacts from the Battle of Waterloo, and much more. A 12-month digital subscription to Discover Your Ancestors periodical is available for just £24.99 from www.discoveryourancestors.co.uk/subscribe/.
