A rare treat for non-members: the opportunity to join a discussion circle.

The GSV special interest groups are normally only open to members. Come along and see why these meetings are among of the favourite events of many members.

Maree Ring from the Tasmanian Family History Society (TFHS) is the guest speaker for the 23 June meeting of the Victoria and Tasmania Discussion Circle.

Maree’s talk will include a background to the convict system in Tasmania, the records available, what they are and where to find them. She will focus on online records and include some records that are quite rare.

Maree is a regular contributor to the TFHS journal on a wide range of topics, so maybe we’ll be able to ask her questions related to other aspects of our Tasmanian research at the end of her talk.

Longer term GSV members might remember Maree from talks at GSV and Victorian conferences many years ago.

Please register on the Activities / Events page.

We look forward to seeing you on 23 June at 10.30am on zoom.

It’s $20 for non-members. Please contact the GSV office during business hours to register and pay. The fee will be credited against your joining fee if you decide to join the Society soon after attending. You need to phone the office to take advantage of this special offer.
