No history societies could be found for the Channel Islands in general.  There is one society that specializes in Jersey history,<br>
'''The Societe Jersiaise''' that is dedicated to the study of Jersey archaeology, history, natural history, the ancient language and the conservation of the environment.


However there is a plethora of Museums on the different islands providing rich sources of information about their history.  Several sources are listed below:

In the spring of 1915 a small band of Jerseymen left their island home to fight in one of the most terrible wars the world has ever seen. Fêted as heroes at first, they soon faced not only the horror of the trenches, but also a bitter personal battle for support and recognition. Now, for the first time, their story is told in full.
