-:The Yorkshire Archaeological and Historical Society (known until recently as the Yorkshire Archaeological Society) has promoted the study of Yorkshire’s past since 1863, when it was created as the Huddersfield Archaeological and Topographical Association.  On this site you'll find details of the society's historical and archaeological activities across Yorkshire - lectures, excursions, publications, projects - and links to its vibrant special interest sections.
+:The Society’s archives include remarkably varied and fascinating collections of maps, diaries, letters, prints, photographs, deeds, wills, manorial records and rare or early printed books which altogether offer insight into the archaeology and history of the historic county of York from prehistoric to modern times.

+The [https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ '''General Register Office'''] holds a central copy of all birth, marriage, and death registrations in England. These certificates can be ordered from their [https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ '''website'''] (a login is required but it is free to register and search). However, in some cases research can be more efficient working with the smaller, more specific records collections of county/district registry offices.
