Ancestry is the world’s largest online database of family history records, including birth, marriage, death and census records. It is particularly good for those of you tracing London ancestors.
You can access our subscription to Ancestry Library Edition for free in any Tower Hamlets library or idea store with no login requirement by going directly to the Ancestry Library Edition homepage.

Unfortunately this is only available from an Idea Store or the Tower Hamlets Local History Library and Archives, not from home.
