Welcome
to the web page of our
society. We hope you enjoy your visit and find information on the Gympie area
and the people who once lived in the district.
Gympie
Family History Society Inc. was founded in 1980 and has grown from a small group
of members helping each other carry out research to a well equipped Society with
our own rooms and a large library reference and research facility. The
Society enjoys a good working relationship with the Gympie Library's Historical
section and is supported by the
Gympie Regional Council.
|
Our Society is at a well
known landmark (Old Railway Station) easy to find with convenient car park and shops for lunch. |
Inside our rooms are
spacious with a tea room, quiet areas as well as separate photocopying room
& office. |
The
Society maintains links with other genealogical and family history groups and
reciprocal rights are enjoyed with a number of them,
which members can visit and where they can conduct
research. Some restrictions may apply.
Projects that our Society undertakes involves our members
carrying out research for the purpose of collating and collecting
local knowledge for maintaining our history. This information is
then produced in book form and sold. Funds from the sales of these
books are used to provide additional research materials for our library.
We
also have provided a list of research materials in our area.
There are three locations in the Gympie area to conduct research.
Our Society at the Old Railway Ticket Office.
