Full of Fascinating stories

How much do you know about your family history? Our ancestors have fascinating stories to tell and we can help you find them. 

The Genealogy group meets monthly on Wednesday mornings at Hasbury with the aim of sharing family history stories and experience to help everyone in their research. Members have shown examples of how they store and display their findings to share ideas in order to help each other.

The group have looked at the range of free websites available, as well of those which require a subscription, and then considered the advantages and disadvantages of each. Moving forward, the group continues to discuss a specific type of family history resource at each meeting to gain inspiration to break down brick walls in their own trees. Interesting stories from individual members research are also shared with the group.

So if you are interested in discovering fascinating stories about your own family come and join us.
