The Cork Genealogical Society came into being at an inaugural meeting on 15th March 1994, when a few enthusiasts promoted the idea and attracted over 50 people to the first meeting. Since then, we have met on the second Thursday of each month at 8 pm, with a speaker at each meeting followed by a discussion. Meetings are held in January (AGM), February, March, April, May, September, October, November, and December. Membership is on a yearly basis and begins in January.
Annual Fee is €20, and this includes all meetings, newsletters and Journals. Access to the members only page, outings and Workshops.

Summer Project
As a project for the summer write up your family tree in book form. Get the bones of it down on paper or word file ready to finish it in the winter.
Visit some relatives and get their story into your book. Write about your parents and their lives. Add some photos and other ephemera.
You don't want just a list of names, you want their history and their stories. It doesn't have to be fancy or complicated. The simpler the better for those reading it after you.
Collect the stories about your relatives. Become the family story collector. Buy yourself a nice notebook and pen to record the details.
There is so much more to family history.
Please note that the Society cannot undertake research
