What are one place studies?
A one-place-study (OPS) considers your ancestors in their physical and social context.
By learning about your ancestors' neighbours and studying the historical environment and events, big and small, that took place within a village, you can gain a greater understanding of your own genealogy.

I do like to be beside the seaside - and there's sea on either side of our ancestors living in Somerset. Go and take a stroll with them.
