Apprenticeships, Guilds and Friendly Societies Seminar Posted 28 July 2023 by Alan WaterhouseOn Saturday 21st October 2023 we head to the former pit village of Outwood, north of Wakefield, in Yorkshire’s rhubarb triangle for our next seminar. During our research we discover our ancestors’ occupations. They may have followed in their father’s footsteps, learnt a trade, joined the forces or gone into one of the ‘professions’. By learning more about ancestors’ employment we can understand more about the way they lived, why they might have migrated and to which socio-economic group they belonged.
