Ancestors who Worked in the Theatre, By Alan Ruston

Researching ancestors who worked in the theatre can seem daunting but this book will be your key to success!
Sometimes we find an ancestor with an unexpected occupation and those who worked in the theatre can appear with varying occupations, not all clearly “theatre”.  You may need to link a stage name to a birth name; this book has an example. Delve deeper and, using the wealth of material available, you can establish an interesting story.  You may even unravel the mystery and discover untold riches for your family history.

Theatre collections are spread around the country and worldwide; they are quite unique and details are listed here along with specialist societies and much more.

The author has completely revised his popular earlier work to provide this Really Useful Guide.

This book will enthral, encourage and help you succeed in unravelling your ancestors who worked in the theatre.
