Nottinghamshire Family History Society

We are pleased to be working in partnership with the Nottinghamshire Family History Society.

Nottinghamshire Family History Society evolved in 1973 from the East Midlands Family History Society, which had formed about 1970 to cover family history interests in Nottinghamshire. The membership of the Society fluctuates but stands at the present time at approximately 1,200.

The Society holds regular meetings in Nottingham where members can hear a variety of speakers, seek advice and meet other enthusiasts. A small library, which concentrates mainly on Nottinghamshire material, is also available but the Society is hoping to establish a place suitable for a workshop that would house this so as to make it more readily available to all.
