The Quebec Family History Society is a Canadian non-profit organization founded in 1977,
incorporated in 1988,
to foster the study of genealogy among the English speaking peoples of Quebec.
OUR AIMS
- Promote the study of genealogy in Quebec.
- Foster original genealogical research.
- Collect and preserve books, manuscripts and other related material.
- Maintain a reference library of materials related to the study of genealogy and family history.
- Publish a quarterly journal, Connections.
- Conduct workshops and seminars, and public lectures on topics of interest to members.
- Sponsor projects to further the availability of genealogical knowledge, e.g. transcriptions, and indexing.
- Organize field trips to various research centres, such as the Archives and the National Library.
While the majority of our members are researching in Quebec, the following areas are also highly rated in our
member's interest areas:
- England, Ireland, Scotland
- Ontario,
- North Eastern United States, and
- France.
Our research material tries to satisfy our member's needs.

and by paid library research done by our volunteers. We are a registered charitable organization.
We are members of the:
- QAHN (Quebec Anglophone Heritage Network),
- FFHS (Federation of Family History Societies),
