The Quaker Family History Society was formed in 1993 and
is a member of the Federation of Family History Societies.
Our aim is to encourage and assist anyone interested in
tracing the history of Quaker families in the British Isles. We are based in Britain, so do not claim any
expertise on the history of Quakers outside Britain.

Although we are not a Quaker organisation, we are a recognised external body for the purposes of Britain Yearly Meeting
(of the Society of Friends). QFHS membership is open to anyone interested in the history of British or Irish Quakers,
whether they themselves are members or attenders of the Society of Friends, or non-members with no personal connection.
Our members include:
- Family historians with Quaker ancestors
- Friends with an interest in history, including that of
their local meeting
- Those who wish to learn about their British Quaker
ancestors
Members receive:
- three issues of our Journal, Quaker
Connections a year
- a chance to meet others with similar
interests at our AGM in central London in
June or July, and at one-day meetings, which are held in
the Spring and Autumn at various locations
