The Family History Society of Cheshire (FHSC) was founded in 1969 to advance the study of family history and genealogy, and we now have members worldwide. As well as helping people with ancestors in Cheshire, we also assist members living locally whose ancestors originated elsewhere.
The Society is a member of the Federation of Family History Societies and also the North West Group of Family History Societies.
It is a registered charity (No. 515168). All our officers and officials are unpaid volunteers, helping in their spare time.
We produce a large number of Publications relating to Cheshire family history, including marriage census indexes, monumental inscriptions and parish register transcripts.
Members are also invited to participate in our Society's numerous Projects, which include indexing of parish registers, transcribing gravestone inscriptions and inputting data for publication.
Members will also have the opportunity of joining our various discussion forums.
There are a number of help articles call Frequently Asked Questions that can be found by clicking here.
