Members Photos

A new page has been added to the web site for old photos of North Meols families. The first photos to be included can be found at Members' Photos.

A couple of new photos have recently been added, so go and have a look. The first set of photos, submitted by Jim Feely, resulted in two people recognising members of their own family, and we were able to put them in touch wiith Jim.

Let us know if you have any photos that you think will be of interest to other members

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

 HISTORY OF THE SOCIETY 

We are a small, friendly Society. Formed in November 1990, the group meet locally and provide support and encouragement for genealogical research. Our membership consists of approximately 200 people who have an interest in family or local history in the area of North Meols (Southport). Their descendants are now to be found around the world. 

 The Society has quite an extensive members loan library (UK members only) and a wide range of publications which are for sale. These include One Name Extracts from the North Meols Parish Records, 1851 Census Returns for North Meols, Records from Local Churches, North Meols Tithe Map (1839/40) and Publications by Local Authors.
