Next Bank Holiday weekend the Society of Genealogists are holding the

historians, regularly receiving in excess of 3000 visitors.

This coming Fair will be held at the Royal Horticultural Society, New Hall
and Conference Centre, Greycoat Street, Westminster, London SW1, Saturday 3
and Sunday 4 May 10am-5pm.
Tickets are six pounds on the door, or four pounds from the Society (020

Exhibitors range from family history societies, record offices and
repositories to second-hand book dealers, computer software specialists,
conservationists and local historians. It is also an invaluable opportunity
to meet and talk with other family historians.

We also have a prize draw with contributions from S&N, Ancestry.com, Society
of Genealogists, Family Historian (software), Ancestors magazine, National
Institute for Genealogical Studies (Canada). There is also the opportunity
to win binders for Computers in Genealogy magazine.
