Hertfordshire Family History Society

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

Hertfordshire Family History Society was formed in 1977 to cover family history interests in the county of Hertfordshire in southern England, one of the Home Counties adjacent to the capital. Its membership has now grown to some 1,200.

The Society holds regular monthly meetings at Woolmer Green, where members can hear a variety of speakers, seek advice, and meet like-minded people. Prior to each meeting there is the very active computer group. There are also local groups in Hoddesdon and St Albans. The quarterly journal “Hertfordshire People” provides items of local interest, general genealogical information, events and activities of the Society, and an opportunity for members to publish their personal family history interests. Members’ interests can also be found in a separate publication.
