Members' Interests

Every new member who joins the Society receives a blank pedigree chart form as part of their Welcome Pack.

Pedigree Chart Submissions are voluntary of course, but anyone researching Family Names in D&G can often avoid 'reinventing wheels' and so extend their research by sharing with others who are also researching the same families.

Whenever a pedigree chart is returned to the Society it is indexed by name and place and filed. Our online index is updated on a regular basis. This depends on the numbers of charts received but usually three times a year after our Newsletters are issued.

Photocopies of these charts are available to current members only. Requests for copies of charts must be made by ordinary mail (not e-mail) and include your membership number. Use the Pedigree Chart Index page to search our chart index by surname. There is a small charge for this photocopy service to cover costs of materials and postage, detailed on the charts page.

Members' Interests as submitted by New Members will continue to appear in the first Newsletter issued after their membership has been accepted. Please note that these submissions should be brief, consisting only of Surname, Parish and County.
