Our Society is a registered UK educational charity, which welcomes a worldwide membership. Some of our members collect and transcribe information about Wiltshire people, which we make available online and through publications. We keep in touch through this website, our quarterly journal with member surname interests, regular branch meetings in Wiltshire and attending family history open days throughout southern England. Much more about us and membership is in our Members' Handbook and Constitution handbook.
Membership is through an annual subscription of £12, which helps fund our Journal, Resource Centre and outreach activities.
