The Melton Family History Group offers its services to the public every Wednesday morning, 9.30-12.00. If you need help with any aspect of your research - beginning your family history, working through a “road block”, navigating commercial family research packages like Ancestry, using the microfiche or CD collection, or any other issue – drop in and see us.

In researching information for this site it became clear that only some of the Melton area World War One service personnel appear on the cenotaph. If you know of a World War 1 veteran who is not listed on this website, please contact us with details.

woolen socks & a shirt next parcel Mum please as I am short of clothes now
and we cannot carry as much with us except our blanket and just what we stand
up in. …”
I remain your loving son Bob
