About DFHG

We are a very friendly independent group interested in the study of family, local and social history throughout the Norfolk and Suffolk borders. Some of our members have Norfolk and Suffolk ancestors but many are researching ancestors from all over Britain. Most of our members live in Norfolk or Suffolk but there are those who live as far away as America.

We have run occasional six-week courses on Family History, using a professional tutor, also afternoon workshops on various subjects such as wills, writing and publishing your family history and reading old handwriting. We have also organised outings to historic places. Some reports on talks can be found here.

We provide a twice-monthly illustrated newsletter of at least twenty pages which is emailed to all our members. An example of a newsletter can be found here.

Help needed .....

It is always helpful if members of the DFHG or visitors to this site can contribute to its content. If you could help with transcribing any information, have amendments or additions to existing information, or have, or would undertake, any small project, we are always grateful for this.

We are always looking for constructive feedback on the site and would welcome your comments.

As so many different devices are used to access the internet it is impossible to test all possible devices for errors, especially when searching data - if you could do a small piece of testing for us then please make contact.
