A warm welcome to you from the Buckinghamshire Family History Society. We are a group of over 1,500 family historians who have been helping each other for over 30 years. We are family historians who either have ancestors from Bucks or live there (or both!). Why not have a look around and see if we can help with your genealogy.

Visitors are very welcome to browse, site registration is restricted to Society members.

Open Day Success
Written by Tony Sargeant   
BucksFHS logoMany people came to see the attractions at Bucks Family History Society's Open Day where a great amount of research was carried by dedicated researchers and an enjoyable day was had by all. The talks by Nick Barratt were a great success which inspired attendees to revisit both the large selection of commercial stands and other societies who where represented.

The day also saw the launch of the “Dell Index to Bucks Apprentices” and five parish register transcriptions, namely Astwood, Hawridge, Hazelmere, Long Crendon and Princes Risborough; The Parish Register series now has over 60 titles.
