Editor Wanted After many years as editor of the Society's Sandgrounder magazine, Hazel Rimmer has decided that it is time for a change and will step down from her post at the AGM in May. If you would like to take on the post of editor, or would like to know more about what is involved then please get in touch with any member of the committee. You do not need any special computer skills, and Hazel is happy to help the new editor to get started.

Old Photos of Southport One of our members has sent us some copies of photographs from a 'Southport Official Guide of the Corporation' dated 1908. These show a number of views around Lord Street and the Promenade. Although there have been many changes over the years, most of the locations are still recognisable. The photos can be found on the Around North Meols page ~~~~~ __________________________________________
Articles wanted for The Sandgrounder, the society magazine Apart from seeing your work in print, have you ever considered that you may actually be helping other members? Contributions to your magazine can sometimes result in new contacts and new research lines for you to follow. Have you ever had a totally unexpected result from your research? Why not share it with us?
I do hope this reminder will spur you on, you have nothing to lose, but other members could gain so much from you.
Please send articles to Hazel at editor@nmfhssouthport.co.uk
