What’s in a name? Want to find out? We have added a new title to our online subscriptions – The Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland.—East Sussex Library and Information Service, March newsletter 2017
A team of researchers has spent four years researching the origins and meanings of nearly 50,000 surnames.
Some common, some obscure, some old and some more recent. Why not pop into any East Sussex library and find out the history behind your family names or use your library card and PIN to access from any computer.
Why not have a look at our full range of e-subscriptions and e-resources? Most of our subscriptions can be accessed from any computer using your library card number and PIN, and if you have forgotten your PIN you can reset it here.
