Rotherham Family History Society was formed to bring together the
Family History Community in Rotherham and the surrounding area and
offers a forum and marketplace, which gives its members the opportunity
to meet other like minded people in a friendly atmosphere conducive
to the furtherment of their Genealogical interests.
RFHS also
provides a commerce service to create and sell a wide variety of
reference products, and offers members unique merchandise across
virtually every Family History topic from Census indexes to Old Photographs.
