A talk by Kathy Chater, hosted by the North West Kent Family History Society Dartford Branch.

Kathy has been researching her family history for over 40 years. She worked as a researcher at the BBC and still advises on historical sources.

Many of us have a suicide in our family  but for some the subject is taboo. However, it may explain the disappearance of an ancestor.

Kathy will explain how attitudes have changed over the centuries and where you can find the records.

Doors open 9.45am. The meeting / talk will start at 10.30am and end by 12.30pm.

The Talk venue has a large, free car park but it is shared with other users and can be busy at times.

No booking, just turn up.

The Society is a registered charity and membership fees and donations are an important part of our income. The Talk is free to members but guests and visitors are asked to make a donation towards hall hire and speaker's fee. There will be a donations box at the venue.

But Society membership only costs £10 a year (£12 joint members) https://www.nwkfhs.org.uk/about/membership/our-membership
