A warm welcome to the May issue of Discover Your Ancestors Periodical, your monthly digital mix of family and social history, in our unique web-friendly format ideal for screens of all sizes.

The history and legacy of slavery is a complex and (rightly) much-discussed topic, but one aspect is little mentioned: the imprisonment of Europeans by Barbary corsairs in the Ottoman empire – in this issue Phil Wood tells their story, including some fascinating snippets of first-hand accounts from those enslaved.

Also in this issue, we mark the 200th anniversary of England's National Gallery – something touched on more briefly in the 11th printed edition of Discover Your Ancestors, which is now out! – and we follow in the footsteps of a Victorian detective agency. All that and more…

I hope you enjoy this issue.

Andrew Chapman, Editor.
