SOME FACTS ABOUT THE NSW & ACT ASSOCIATION OF FAMILY HISTORY SOCIETIES INC





  • HISTORY
    The NSW & ACT Association of Family History Societies was formed in 1982. From its formation until 1999 it operated under the name of the NSW Association of Family History Societies and from that year it incorporated the ACT into its name to better reflect the interests of the Heraldry & Genealogy Society of Canberra Inc. which had been a member since the Association's inception.

  • OBJECTIVES
    To foster an interest in family history and to represent the views of its member societies in matters of state, national and international genealogical interest.
    The Association does not undertake genealogical research nor does it exist to help individual family historians.
    Rather, it can provide researchers with contact details of the most appropriate member society or societies to assist with their enquiries.

  • STRUCTURE
    The Association is co-ordinated by a State Executive of eight members who are elected annually at the Annual General Meeting.
    The State is divided into four regions and two executive members are appointed from each region to ensure even representation.

  • ANNUAL CONFERENCE
    The NSW & ACT Association of Family History Societies Inc. has an annual conference which is hosted by a member society.


    2009
    The Annual Conference will be hosted by Wyong Family History Group Inc.
