Event - Discover more about your family history (Doncaster)

COME along to a free event that will help you on your way to discovering your family history.
If you are intrigued to delve into your past but are unsure where to start, helpers will be on hand during the opening evening.

Run by the Doncaster and District Family History Society, members will guide people around its Palgrave Research Centre in Balby.

The King Edward Road centre stores around 55,000 pieces of information and historical material.

The charity-registered group will host the event on Tuesday, from 4pm until 8.30pm.

There will be tea and coffee available and residents are urged to use the Florence Street entrance.

For more details about the event and to book your place call 01302 854809.

The society is also looking for volunteers to help with a range of jobs such as administration, publicity and finance, transcribing and organising events.

Experience is not essential and training will be given.

If anybody can spare some time to help out, contact the group’s chairman David Rollin on 01302 342239.
People wanting to find out more about what the group offers can log on to www.doncasterfhs.co.uk
