Note:
This is a summary of the services available.
Please remember that many HGS Index-holders also work in paid employment
and do not have time for lengthy correspondence. Please keep any enquiries
to a minimum. Please remember always to include a Stamped and Self-Addressed
Envelope with each request. Cheques should be made payable to ‘Hampshire
Genealogical Society’. Many members prefer to send open blank cheques
for us to fill in the figures, whilst writing the words e.g. “maximum amount
£5.00” in the amount section. In all cases the current Members' Handbook
gives full details of each service – a replacement handbook can always
be obtained from the Membership Secretary
(send 3 x 1st class stamps + A5 sized SSAE).
