Local History

 

 

Due to the large number of family history enquiries arriving at this web site and our sister site Dengie.org.uk the history, Genealogy and old photograph content has been moved from this site to a new home at www.essex-family-history.co.uk

Essex Family History contains extensive pages on the history of Burnham and the adjoining Dengie 100 area plus many online records of interest to a genealogist or person tracing their family history.

The Family History index on the menu bar above contains pages with lists of people taken from directories, rolls etc. These pages will also be of interest to the historian.

The pages available at Essex Family History are listed below. They can be accessed directly by clicking on the page name link.
