About the Author :
Kathy Chater has taught genealogy and associated research subjects for nearly ten years, following her completion of a Diploma on Genealogy and the History of the Family from the University of London. Her areas of special expertise include research skills, and the basis of her book is that these are central to the successful tracing of ancestors. She learned her own research skills at the BBC, working on production teams, and has since shared these skills with journalists and product development executives, as well as with would-be genealogists at numerous seminars around the country. Her writing includes a website on tracing Caribbean ancestry, articles for several magazines, and books on research for television and the media in general. Kathy is a member of the Huguenot Society as well as the Society of Genealogists and has traced her own family back to the 1600s.
