Felixstowe Family History Society
The Family History Society for Felixstowe and surrounding area.

Felixstowe FHS was formed in 1986 with the aims of:

1. helping beginners to increase their knowledge of genealogy and to assist them in their own family research
2. assisting in the preservation of local and genealogical records
3. sharing knowledge thereby making all aware of what information is available and where
4. arranging speakers at monthly meetings
5. publishing a quarterly journal for distribution to all members.

The Colneis Peninsula lies between the Rivers Deben and Orwell and is bounded on the west by Ipswich and Woodbridge. It includes the parishes of Felixstowe, Walton, Trimley St. Mary, Trimley St. Martin, Kirton, Falkenham, Levington, Nacton, Brightwell, Martlesham, Bucklesham, Newbourn, Hemley and Waldringfield.

Publishing local records. Since the Society's Foundation, members have recorded local Monumental Inscriptions and these have been collated and published. Many parochial church councils have kindly allowed us to copy their registers and these, too, have been published.
