Some facts ABOUT the Association
HISTORY:
The NSW & ACT Association of Family History Societies was formed in
1984. 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 interests.
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 Committee of Management 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.
2012
The annual conference will be hosted by the Botany Bay Family
History Society Inc.
