Dorset Family History Society’s Monthly Meeting
« on: Friday 19 July 19 17:14 BST (UK) »
On Tuesday 15th October 2019:

DAVID GYNES will be giving a talk entitled ‘It’s The Way You Tell ‘Em!’

A light-hearted look at sayings from yours, or your parents’ childhood and youth, local or dialect, family-unique, or folk lore. This means we will need YOUR participation, so get out your notebooks and bring along your sayings to spark others in to remembering.  It will be Interactive fun, with a serious underlying value, in that David believes a Family History account can be given depth using sayings or jargon from the “day” in a footnote or explanation.

David has been researching his Family History for 46 years on and off and still hasn’t found birth details of his GG Grandad!! A member of several FH Societies over the years as he moved around, he is also a founder member of the Guild of One Name Studies, teaching and helping others to take up this wonderful hobby. He served as Chairman of DFHS for six years previously, and now has been re-elected after a two year break.


Dorset Family History Society now meets at a new venue:
St George’s Church Hall,
Darby’s Lane,
Oakdale, Poole, Dorset, BH15 3EU

Meetings are now on the 3rd Tuesday of the month (except August).
There is plenty of parking and the doors open at 7pm for a 7.30 start.
£2 to include refreshments.

EVERYONE WELCOME
