10.01.2022 Member Society Day On Saturday May 25th, the Genealogical Society played host to our Member Societies with our Annual get-together at the GSV in Queen Street. T...he GSV has 59 Member Societies, and three Service Groups. We had two key areas to discuss this year. At the GSV we have been pleased with the growth of our Discussion Circles. The latest, Victoria and Tasmania, had its inaugural meeting just the day before. The second item was the contentious issue of the changes to the BDM website, and the angst it has caused to us all. The answer to this problem would seem to be Susie Zada, who provided an excellent in-depth solution to our issues. Susie was at the meeting as representative of the Geelong Family History Group, but for this presentation, she wore her other hat as representative of VAFHO, the Victorian Association of Family History Organisations. Susie deserves a vote of thanks for taking on this project single-handedly and working on behalf of all Victorian genealogists. Once again, the day proved to be terrific. Social activity, and good information exchange. See more

08.01.2022 It is with a sense of disbelief and great sadness that we let members know that Dr Joan Hunt our wonderful guest speaker of two weeks ago passed away yesterday. Her gifts for enthusing her audiences and sharing her knowledge of how to go about researching Australian History and our Family Ancestors will be greatly missed. She was our favourite speaker and had generously returned a number of times to spend the whole day with us on our Special Family History Days in August, National Family History Month. On one occasion she planned a whole excursion for our Group to Ballarat to help us learn more about this Historical area. Once again she spent the whole day with us sharing her great knowledge of the Ballarat area. At this time our thoughts and sympathy go out to Joans husband and family.

06.01.2022 with heatwaves in the eastern states, and severe weather warnings for South Australia, it sounds like a good time to stay inside and do research. So this offer of 4 days FREE access to Findmypast is perfectly timed! #genealogy #happyresearching
