The Club Family History Group meets on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 10.00 to 12.00. We meet in Parkview Hall. This is an activity run by volunteers for the Club.
We have a common interest in researching our own family history and family history in general, including the social history of the various times our ancestors lived. We focus on (but don’t restrict to) what can be discovered from the comfort of our own homes or local libraries through the internet.
Family History Group will (from 2024) focus on practical application rather than presentation only. There will be a monthly topic but problem solving will be an integral part of the monthly sessions. Information will still be projected on the screen but will become more interactive. Attendees will be encouraged to share any ‘brick walls’ or problems they are encountering, but also any discoveries or what has worked for them during their family history journey. You can also bring your device along for research and to record any useful information. We always break for morning tea to give a chance to talk informally.
