VisitBritain in conjunction with the genealogy website http://www.ancestry.co.uk found that about five per cent of North American, Australian and New Zealand tourists to the United Kingdom were embarking on ancestry tours last year.
They expect this figure to double over the next 12 months.

creativematch: Leger looks to Ancestry: "Leger Holidays, provider of European Battlefield breaks, has partnered with online family history website, Ancestry.co.uk, in a number of cross promotions that will benefit both parties by sharing audiences and increasing brand awareness.
The first stage of the promotional work has already kicked off, which includes a Leger offer on Ancestry.co.uk marketing material, event leaflets as well as a promotional block and the link on the website. This will provide Ancestry.co.uk’s audience with a 10 per cent discount off Leger breaks.
In return, Leger has given Ancestry.co.uk space and a link on the Leger website, as well as in the latest battlefields brochure, providing a 20 per cent discount off the Ancestry.co.uk family history subscription.
Huw Williams, Marketing Director at Leger Holidays, said: “Over the past few years there has been increasing interest in retracing family footsteps and what was once a specialist subject has been catapulted into the mainstream.
“Traditionally, Leger’s battlefield tours have attracted enthusiasts and war veterans, however in recent years we have seen this offering become more appealing to a wider audience, and this deal with Ancestry.co.uk allows us to attract a raft of new customers who already have an interest in history.
