Cleveland Family History Society
About the Cleveland Family History Society
The Society is more formally known as The Cleveland, N. Yorks. and S. Durham Family History Society. The long title more accurately describes the area of coverage of the Society, which is rather larger than that of the county of its title.
It was formed to cover a perceived gap in the coverage of the neighbouring societies, Northumberland & Durham FHS and the various societies serving Yorkshire.
The Cleveland Family History Society aims to promote the study of genealogy and family history and to educate the public therein by holding meetings, sharing information, encouraging research, giving assistance, and producing publications for the public benefit.
