There's something for everyone passionate about family history. So why not come and spend an hour or a whole day tracing your family in our library? Fees for non-members to use the library are refundable if you decide to join the Society on the day of your visit.
What's more, especially for those involved with National Family Week, you'll find below a voucher that waives the normal joining fee for the Society. Just print it off and bring it with you when you visit us (before the end of 2009).
