Land Use Maps Uk
Though property documents and land deeds may not strike you as the first place to check for genealogical information, but you should not discount these sources in your research.
Unlike regular vital records, you never know exactly what information you will find on a deed. But because a person needed to be identified as completely as possible, there were often many pieces of information included. Several members of a person's family might be mentioned (parents, spouse, children) as well as neighbour's names. This will most definitely be the case when property is willed in an estate. You may also find a birth date, occupation or place of birth.
