Key archives for Leicestershire and Rutland

When researching your family history in Leicestershire and Rutland, it is very important to look at local research centres within these counties. However, do not overlook the importance of archives in bordering counties. Many families resided in border areas, meaning vital records and information may be held beyond the immediate Leicestershire and Rutland boundaries.
