SUMMARY:Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Workshop 8: Watermen Family Trees
DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in history\, here’s your opportunity to stimulate those “grey cells” over the summer months and perhaps even meet some like minded folk over a cuppa and a biscuit. Thanks to the award of a Hull Maritime Community Grant\, Yorkshire Waterways Heritage Society is running a series of twenty heritage workshops at Goole Museum during the spring and summer of 2024. \nEvery Tuesday\, a session will run from 10.15am to 1pm\, combining an opportunity for visitors to raise questions about their own ancestors\, perhaps donate photographs or stories for inclusion on our website and have a look at some of the new stuff we will be publishing during 2024.  You’ll maybe learn some new tricks and perhaps how you too can help us to illuminate the lives of the hard working watermen who plied their trade on the waterways of 19th and 20th century Yorkshire.  \nNo appointment is needed although each workshop will have a 30 – 45 minute presentation starting at 11am which you won’t want to miss. Each presentation will feature a topic of interest and explore how our volunteers have researched\, captured and published what has been discovered. \nThis week’s presentation: Watermen Family Trees \nToday we will be looking at what YWHS has been doing with family history research into twenty waterways families.  We’ll share the story of how we’ve made them available on our website and elsewhere and tell you about our exciting plans for making them even more visible. \nOur computers will have access to the main family history websites. Light refreshments will be available.

SUMMARY:Haxey and Westwoodside Heritage Society
DESCRIPTION:Presentation: Yorkshire’s Watermen \nThe transportation of goods across pre motorway Yorkshire relied heavily on the watermen\, often accompanied by their families\, who piloted their well laden keels along the numerous canals and rivers of the county. David Scrimgeour shares his new research examining the extant Canal Boat Registers to see what extra insight they offer the family historian\, illustrated with real examples from watermen families across the county.
