Welcome to the Family and Social History group.

The prerequisite for attending our gatherings will be membership of Knutsford & District u3a – see the Membership page. 

Meetings will be held on the third Tuesday of the month at the Knutsford Methodist church, in the Main Hall of the church, 10.45 to 11.45 am.

To cover the cost of hiring the room, there is a modest cost for attending: £2.00 per person.

On behalf of the group’s members, I would like to thank Karen Oakes for continuing to relieve group members of their £2 entry fee, each meeting. Meet and Greet positions are much sought after, so if you would like to alternate with Karen, I know that she would be happy to share this enjoyable responsibility.

Dates of Next Meetings

N.B.  As ever, each meeting has a topic or two, but we are always keen to follow up on progress that has been made on subjects that have been previously aired, to reflect ongoing researches and to help newer members as they arrive and settle in.  

Tuesday 18th March

‘The Role of the Census Enumerator’ 

What do you know of the trials and tribulations of the people (men, I imagine) who recorded the census details that we, these days, are able to access with such ease?

As always, there will be loose ends from earlier meetings, so take your chance to ask a question or two, or let me know if you would like to present a story.
