Herefordshire Family History Society

We are pleased to be working in partnership with the Herefordshire Family History Society which aims to cover family history interests in the county of Herefordshire.

Herefordshire Family History Society was formed in 1980 to cover family history interests in the county of Herefordshire, and has a membership to date of 900.

The society holds monthly meetings in Hereford where members can hear a variety of speakers, seek advice, especially at the research evenings run three times a year, and enjoy meeting likeminded people. There is a bi-annual fair in Hereford, and society volunteers also attend surrounding counties’ fairs.
