Little Branches Genealogy

Little Branches Genealogy is owned and run by Theresa Malviya, MA, BA (Hons). 

History has always been my passion, right from an early age, and I love discovering what I call the little people, the ones you won't find in history books. Those at the bottom of society who rarely have a voice but played such an important role in our history. My family tree is full of them - agricultural labourers, mill workers, coprolite diggers.

After leaving school I study history at the Open University, achieving a BA (Hons) and a MA in history. My specialist areas are Victorian Britain and World War 2.

I've been working on my own family tree for many years, tracing my ancestors back to the late 1700s using a variety of documents and records and after taking maternity leave in 2017 I was lucky enough to have a little spare time to work on and extend my family tree. As part of this I chose to take some courses with Pharos Tutors which has led me to gain the Intermediate Certificate in Family History Skills and Strategies. Currently I am studying the advance certificate with the aim to complete this in 2026. 

I grew up in the beautiful villages surrounding Cambridge and this is where my own ancestors were based. However I am now located in North East Lincolnshire, just by the coast and not far from the scenic Lincolnshire Wolds.

I am committed to helping you discover your ancestry through dedicated research and expert analysis.
