Records and archives


Whether you want to trace the history of your house, discover the origins of your neighbourhood or trace your family history, our helpful and knowledgeable staff will guide and assist you through our collections of historical documents.

The main aim of the Record Office is to ensure the survival of documentary evidence from both public and private sources which throw light on life in Anglesey over the centuries. The Record Office keeps people in touch with their heritage by letting them know what has gone before in the community.

Many people do not realise the extent and wealth of material available in the Record Office but more and more are finding that 'digging' in the archives is not a daunting academic exercise but an enjoyable pastime: exploring, finding out and discovering the past.

For full information on how to contact the archive service including opening hours and location, please follow the links on the left.
