Our journal is distributed free of charge to all members four times each subscription year. It contains news, articles, material of Family History interest and other information to assist members in their research.
Requests for help in research may be published in the magazine, space permitting, free of charge up to a maximum of forty words with a charge of 4p per word thereafter (in sterling please). Please send the text of the enquiry, not general lines of research to the Editor.
Contributions are welcomed from all members to whom the Editor sends the following message:
