Hi, this is just another family history site – a simple means to share with my extended Monk and Hardy family some research and insight into what came before us.
Dedicated to my Mum and Dad, I have (and continue) to look back beyond them to where our ancestors came from, their lives and place in making ‘me’ happen. On my Father’s side the Monk name and on my Mother’s side the name Hardy.
I’m no genealogical expert so forgive the inevitable errors caused by some inspired guesswork, trusting other sources and the simple fact of the harsh realities of bygone ages.
Where possible I will add some context to the pure family tree, through locations, historic events, maps and images.
I dabble with my family history when time permits so this is simple a snapshot of where my research stands and how much of it I have had time to write up. Most of my work is recorded in Ancestry.UK
