Most of us will no doubt have postcards relating to our Family History. Some faces will be known or unknown but its usually the messages on the back, that is just as interesting.
This presentation by Roger Young looks at postcards – their history, their effect upon British culture and their key part in genealogical research. They were the telephone, text and social media of the day in their golden years, 1890 – 1920.
