Boost for family history research

Hundreds of islanders have taken part in BBC Radio Guernsey's family history day at the Priaulx Library.

The event was held on Saturday as part of the BBC's Who Do You Think You Are? programme, which aims to help people research their family trees.

Staff at Priaulx Public Library said they were "pleased" with the level of public interest.

They hope that Saturday's crowds will renew interest in researching family history in the island.
