Woolwich & District Family History Society

We are pleased to be working in partnership with the Woolwich & District Family History Society.

Woolwich & District Family History Society was formed in 1979 to cover family history interests in the London Borough of Greenwich and the northern half of the London Borough of Bexley in Kent. Membership has now grown to some 400 members.

The society holds regular meetings at Shrewsbury House, SE18 where members and non members are welcome to hear a variety of speakers, seek advice, and meet other enthusiasts. The Society meets fortnightly from January to June, and September to November. Meetings are four weekly in July, August and December. Alternative meetings are members’ evenings when the library and help are available.

Additional information about the society

The society has contributed to the National Burial Index for England & Wales.

The society publishes a quarterly journal which provides items of local interest, general genealogical information, events and activities of the society and lists of the society’s own publications. A separate publication of members’ family history interests is occasionally published on microfiche.

Woolwich & District FHS is an associate member of the Federation of Family History Societies.
