If you want to find any family history society then you should go to

http://www.ffhs.org.uk/members2/contacting.php

This gives you the addresses of all the societies that are members of the Federation of Family History Societies - worldwide.

Do not forget some societies are not members of the Federation.
Buckinghamshire genealogical Society for one. ;)

http://www.bucksgs.org.uk/ This society has Mrs Eve McLaughlin (author of the famous McLaughlin guides) as Secretary.

Cheers

For the answer to this and many other genealogical questions, see GenUKI (http://www.genuki.org.uk/). You will find it useful to bookmark this.

The Buckinghamshire section of GenUKI lists seven societies which may be of interest.

No, don't try this one folks. :smile5:

I appreciate that you live in the US Steve, but I can assure you that a building society (which is a financial institution similar to a bank) is a world away from a family history society. The latter will usually have FHS somewhere in its title/website address.

Other very useful sources of such info are genuki.org.uk for the UK, and cyndislist.com for the world.

Yes I should use it much more but one tends to get a bit focussed on specific sites and forget others.
