Thanks to the BBC genealogy series "Who Do You Think You Are?"
researching your family history is more popular than ever, but it
can be a lengthy and costly business. Now the Vale of Glamorgan
Libraries can help. We have subscribed to www.ancestrylibrary.com

collections of family history records on the Internet. It includes
scanned images from the 1901, 1891, 1881, 1871 and 1861 censuses
for England and Wales. All members of the Vale of Glamorgan Library
Service can access it for free on our library PCs.
