Welcome to our WebsiteThe society was formed in 1987 and is for all those who are interested in genealogy and family history. Our members include people who live locally, in and around the area of Kirklees and Huddersfield, but also nationally and around the world. On the website, we have pages of interesting facts and information about our local townships, parishes and their churches. Surnames and their frequencies on the 1841 and 1851 census’, plus many more. So whether you are a longstanding member of the Society or just browsing, we hope that you will find something in our very many pages, to interest you. The society recently held our own Family & Local History Fair which took place on Saturday 14th November 2009, at Batley Town Hall. The link above will take you directly to the web page with full details and poster. The event was open to all and we welcomed visitors from all parts of the country and even some from foreign climes. The day was deemed as a great success with positive feedback from both exhibitors and visitors. We look forward to many more in the future. The winners of the prize draws are listed on the web page. We have a large and very active team of volunteers who work with the society, helping with a variety of things such as transcribing parish registers, helping at one or more of our many library sessions, or helping out at the “Root Cellar”, to name just a few, and the committee would like to thank all our volunteers who, like the committee members, give their time freely. We are always in need of more volunteers and anyone wishing to offer some of their time, would be most welcome. For those of you who are completely new to us, we hope you find navigating around the site easy, informative, and productive and we hope you are encouraged to come back and perhaps join our society. In either case, thank you for your visit and we hope to see you soon. The website is constantly being modified and improved, however, should you experience any problems navigating this site, or need a few pointers, or even have any suggestions about the content of the website, please contact the Webmaster. Please Note: Membership, Ordering Forms and most of the posters require Acrobat Reader which is available as a free download by clicking on the link above. If you know which page you want to view, you can go to directly to that page by clicking on the link to the HDFHS Site Map. Page last updated 26th November 2009. Copyright |
