Forthcoming Meetings
April 17 2024
David Rose - History of Picture PostcardsDavid Rose is a well-known local history writer and public speaker. He has written and co-written more than a dozen local history books focusing on Guildford and the surrounding area.
He has been interested in history for as long as he can remember and collects all kinds of things related to what he calls ‘history of living memory’. His collection includes old photographs, picture postcards, books, maps, guide books, plus a wide range of old bottles, bygones and yesteryear’s advertising.
This talk tells the story of the humble postcard, and uses cards from the Guildford area to tell the story.

Informal - Astounding Discoveries?The group will chat about discoveries (astounding or more mundane!) that they have made in recent years. Have you broken down any 'Brick Walls'? Have you discovered people in unexpected places (either their location, or unusual record sources)?. Please feel free to bring a short presentation if you wish (but not essential).
