Objectives

The principal objectives of the West Middlesex Family History Society may be summarised:

to promote the study of all aspects of family history and allied subjects;
to encourage the practice of, and distribution of information on, family history and related subjects, by means of lectures on relevant topics;
to preserve and promote access to records and any other sources of material by transcription, indexing and publication.

These objectives form the basis of the Constitution of the Society, which also sets out the terms of membership, governance and procedures by which the Society is run. This was last updated at the AGM on 19th March 2026.
