SAFHS Conference 2018 is OPEN for Registration!

The annual conference of the Scottish Association of Family History Societies is being held in Fife in 2018 and is hosted by the Fife Family History Association. 

The conference is being held at

 Rothes Hall in Glenrothes, 

Fife on April 21, 2018

 from 10 am until 4:30 pm

The topic for the 2018 conference is "Was Your Ancestor a Convict" and the speakers for the day are:

• Andrew Campbell
• Emma Maxwell
• Ken Nisbet
• Bruce Durie

The cost of the conference is just £20 or you can save £5 if you book before January 3, 2018. 

In addition to the Conference, there will be a Family History Fair where there will be stands with representatives of a number of the Family History Societies in Scotland. This is open to attend if you don't want to attend the conference and the fee for just the Family History Fair is just £2. The Fair is a GREAT way to get some ideas about what you should be doing next in your research, to speak to the volunteers who are expert in their region and who have a wealth of knowledge and information that is hard to beat. 

All in all, Conference 2018 promises to be another very successful day of genealogy learning and networking.
