We
hold regular meetings at Burley in Wharfedale (Salem
Church Hall) and Grassington (Aynham Close) with speakers
on related topics and carry out project work to benefit present
and future generations of historians.
Our
quarterly journal, The Wharfedale Newsletter,
includes articles, information and advice for both the beginner
and more experienced member. We are always pleased to have articles
to include in the journal and these can be sent by e-mail directly
to The Editor. Any item,
either on your own family history or about family history in
general, no matter how small, will be considered.
