Family History Month: August 2024

In 2024, Family History Month’s theme is
“Family as a Community – Together We Can Achieve So Much More.”

This year’s theme focuses on how we are part of a bigger community, despite much of our family history research being a solo endeavour. It is an opportunity to celebrate amazing members of our community who have contributed so much to the development of family history research, as well as a chance to share ideas for how we can all support family history research. The theme honours the central role family history organizations and societies play in progressing our beloved pastime.
