England  Somerset  Societies 

Family history societies often publish helpful journals, transcripts, compiled genealogies and host helpful websites. They may have ongoing projects to transcribe records and create indexes. Most societies publish queries in their journals and maintain lists of members’ research interests that may be helpful to you. You may want to join one of these societies, reap the benefits of their expertise and resources or support its efforts.

The Somerset & Dorset Family History Society aims to provide assistance to all those researching their families in the two counties, no matter where they live.
