FAMILY HISTORY |
The main aim is to help members establish and extend their family trees by collecting collating and reviewing what is known within the family, check sources of information to confirm details. Learn how to develop family research skills using record offices, websites and other specialist sources. New Members welcome |

HISTORY THROUGH THE AGES We look at worldwide historical topics throughout the ages. Each year the group chooses a particular period to work within covering royalty, literature, technology, political figures and events. Each member of the group chooses a subject and presents it to the group. We also organise occasional visits and links with other history groups. We have operated on Zoom but are now meeting at each others houses. Vacancies for 1 or 2 more. |

This is a well established group that has been running since 2005. We work in pairs to organise visits; the first month is a local meeting to present information on the trip, the second month is a full day visit to London either self guided or with a professional guide. |

LONDON VILLAGES |
London used to have over 140 separate villages and many of them have very interesting histories. |
Meetings: 3rd Thursday - 14:00 - 16:00 |
OUR INDUSTRIAL PAST |
This new group combines the disbanded Industrial Heritage and Industrial History groups. We will discuss the history of industrial activity from early times to within living memory, covering local, national and international subjects. We like members to contribute with research and presentations. Interest rather than expertise is all that is needed. |
